Yesterday’s Depression has now gained strength and has become a Deep Depression.
This system is set to induce heavy downpour in South Chhattisgarh, South Madhya Pradesh, South Odisha and Vidarbha. In fact, a red alert like situation will persist in these areas.
Fairly widespread moderate to heavy rains have already lashed coastal areas of Odisha. While the city of Puri, recorded heavy rains, its adjoining areas recorded moderate rainfall.
Now, the Deep Depression will further move westwards and we expect moderate to heavy rains and thundershowers over southern districts of Odisha. A few districts might even record very heavy spells. Places like Koraput, Kalahandi and Puri will become the witness to these rains.
By tomorrow the weather activity will subside over the state as the Deep Depression will move further West. This is when, the states of Chhattisgarh, Vidarbha and South Madhya Pradesh will start receiving moderate to heavy rains.
These rains might induce flooding over many parts of Odisha. Localized flooding is expected which will throw life out of gear. Widespread waterlogging and traffic jams might bring disruption to day to day life. Interior areas of Odisha might also receive moderate to heavy rains.
In a nutshell, Odisha is set to receive very heavy rains over its Southern districts today. Thereafter the intensity is set to go down.
