These rainfall activities occurred due to a trough running from South Chhattisgarh up to Comorin region across Telangana, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. A cyclonic circulation can be seen over Jharkhand and adjoining areas while another can be seen over Telangana region which further enhanced rainfall activities.
Now, as per weathermen, these rainfall activities are expected to continue over both these states for some time. Thus, light to moderate rains are expected over Kalingapatnam, Visakhapatnam, Koraput, Balasore, Krishnagiri, and Bhawanipatna. Meanwhile, Sundernagar, Keonjhargarh, and Bhadrak will witness light showers.
