A cyclonic circulation is likely to form in the westcentral Bay of Bengal and adjoining areas of south Odisha and north Andhra Pradesh during the next two days. This low intensity weather system is expected to move inland and bring rain over coastal Andhra Pradesh, south Odisha, south Chhattisgarh, Marathwada, madhya Maharashtra and north interior Karnataka during the weekend.
According to the latest weather update by Skymet Meteorology Division in India, remaining clouds of the erstwhile cyclonic circulation over Bangladesh and adjoining areas of West Bengal once again organised and shifted downward over the Westcentral Bay of Bengal. The manifestation of the weather system could be seen in Skymet Satellite image.
These clouds are close to eastern coast line and would move westward to bring rain in central and interiors of southern peninsula between Friday and Sunday. Due to the absence of southwesterly sea winds, Monsoon rain has been subdued in the region and westerly land winds have led to rise in day temperatures amid relatively clear sky. But the temperatures will drop once rain starts in the region.
According to data available with Skymet Meteorology Division in India for the week between 12th to 18th June, Odisha was 70 per cent short of Monsoon rain compared to the normal, while north Andhra Pradesh has received 90 per cent less rain than normal. Monsoon rain in other areas of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Rayalaseema are below normal by 38 and 85 per cent.
