Bhubaneswar: The low-pressure area over northwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining coastal areas of West Bengal has become more marked, the Meteorological Centre, Bhubaneswar, tweeted on Tuesday.
According to the Centre for Environment and Climate (CEC) of SOA here, the fresh low-pressure area formed over the north-west Bay of Bengal and adjoining West Bengal coast is likely to intensify into a depression and cross the West Bengal coast tonight.
“The system forming now show erratic characteristics about its centre and is expected to cause widespread rain in coastal Odisha and adjoining districts from Tuesday till October 5,” said CEC Director Dr S C Sahu.
The system may cause moderate to heavy rain in south coastal and adjoining south interior districts from October 1 due to interaction of another cyclonic circulation over the south-west and adjoining west-central Bay of Bengal, he said, adding rainfall of varying intensity would drench wide areas stretching from north coastal to south coastal districts.
Meanwhile, the IMD has issued orange warning for Sundargarh, Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj districts. Three NDRF teams have been deployed in Balasore and Mayurbhanj districts in view of heavy rainfall alert.
