The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Tuesday said that the depression, which is the remnant of cyclonic Storm ‘Gulab’, has weakened into a well-marked low pressure area over the western parts of Vidarbha and neigbourhood.
As per IMD, a low pressure area has formed over northwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining coastal areas of West Bengal under the influence of the cyclonic circulation over northeast and adjoining east-central Bay of Bengal.
“The associated cyclonic circulation extends up to mid-tropospheric levels. It is likely to become more marked during next 24 hours,” said IMD.
