Bhubaneswar: Several parts of Odisha will experience rain and thunderstorm activities in the next couple of days under the influence of a fresh low pressure system over Bay of Bengal.
As per India Meteorological Department (IMD), the low pressure area has formed over Equatorial Indian Ocean and adjoining central parts of South Bay of Bengal due to a cyclonic circulation over Equatorial Indian Ocean and adjoining Southeast Bay of Bengal.
An associated cyclonic circulation extends up-to mid tropospheric level and the system is likely to concentrate into a depression over Southwest Bay of Bengal during the next 48 hours and intensify further during subsequent 48 hours.
“It is very likely to move west-north-westwards towards Sri Lanka, south Tamil Nadu coast and reach near Tamil Nadu & Puducherry coast on November 25,” said the IMD bulletin.
