The reason for these rain over both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana can be attributed to the low-pressure area which was over Northwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining Odisha.

As per Skymet Weather, this low-pressure area is likely to intensify further into a well-marked low-pressure area. Thus, rains over both the states are expected to increase. Light to moderate rains with one or two heavy spells is likely to commence over both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh in the next 24 hours.

However, gradually, the system is expected to move in a westward direction and the rain belt will shift inland thereby reducing rains over coastal Andhra Pradesh. Moreover, Rayalaseema is likely to continue with light rains while good rain in Telangana will keep battering the state until July 19.

As on July 16, Coastal Andhra Pradesh is 25% rainfall surplus, Rayalaseema is rain surplus by 10% while the rainfall surplus of Telangana during the similar time frame stands at 12%. Further, the prediction of good rains will contribute in enhancing the rainfall statistics of both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. While not much changes are foreseen for Rayalaseema.
