According to Skymet Weather, weather conditions are still favorable for more rains to lash both the adjoining states. Moreover, rains may pick up pace after 48 hours.
Also, these rains can be attributed to the trough running from East Bihar to Coastal Karnataka across Interior Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. Apart from this, a cyclonic circulation is also seen over Odisha and adjoining areas.
With this, moderate showers with a few heavy spells are likely to continue over Odisha and Andhra Pradesh for the next 3-4 days.

Thereafter, weathermen predict that intensity of rain may even increase further over South Odisha and Coastal Andhra Pradesh. This will be on account of the formation of a fresh cyclonic circulation over west central Bay of Bengal.
With this, we can foresee good showers to keep drenching many parts of Odisha and Andhra Pradesh like Bhubaneswar, Gopalpur, Puri, Paradip, Visakhapatnam, Ongole, Bapatla and Vijayawada.
