According to SOA’s Centre for Environment and Climate (CEC), the incursion of moisture from the Bay of Bengal towards the coast would commence from October 31, causing a gradual increase of water vapour over land which would lead to a rise in night temperature.

Meanwhile, the IMD has forecast light to moderate rain at some places in South Odisha for three days beginning Monday.
