Several parts of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha have been observing good rains since last few days. Moreover, many places in Coastal Andhra Pradesh have managed to record moderate intensity of rains.

In a span of last 24 hours from 8:30 am on Thursday, Bhubaneswar recorded moderate rainfall of 64 mm, Dhenkanal 55 mm, Cuttack 44 mm, Titlagarh and Narsapur 37 mm, Puri 16 mm, Chandbali 15.4 mm, Paradip 11 mm, Kurnool 8 mm, Kalingapatnam 4.2 mm, Machilipatnam, Pulbhani and Angul 4 mm and Tirupathi and Gopalpur 2 mm.

These weather conditions can be attributed to a  cyclonic circulation which is seen persisting over South Coastal Odisha and adjoining North Andhra Pradesh Coast. Also, another cyclonic circulation can be marked over Northwest Bay of Bengal.

Due to these weather systems, many places over Coastal Andhra Pradesh and Odisha will continue to witness moderate rains and thundershower during the next 24 to 48 hours.
