Bhubaneswar: Odisha will receive heavy rainfall for three days under the influence of a low pressure formation over the north-west Bay of Bengal, the Meteorological Centre, Bhubaneswar said on Saturday.
“The rainfall will increase from August 24 and continue for three days till August 26,” senior meteorologist at the Centre, Uma Shankar Das said.
“In the first phase, there will be heavy to very heavy rainfall in the coastal and northern districts and the remaining districts in the next phase. Going by the modular study, the impact of the low pressure will be on about a 1000 km radius,” Das added.
