Depression Forms Over Bay Of Bengal

Bhubaneswar: The Well Marked Low Pressure Area over North Andaman Sea and adjoining Southeast Bay of Bengal has intensified into a Depression over Andaman Sea and adjoining Southeast Bay of Bengal

It is very likely to move northwestwards and intensify further into a Deep Depression over Eastcentral and adjoining Southeast & Westcentral Bay of Bengal on October 23.

Subsequently, it is very likely to recurve gradually northwards and intensify into a Cyclonic Storm over Westcentral & adjoining Eastcentral Bay of Bengal by October 24th. Thereafter, it is likely to move north-northeastwards and reach near West Bengal-Bangladesh coasts by the morning of 25th October, skirting Odisha coast.

Under the influence of the above system, scattered to fairly widespread light/moderate rainfall with isolated heavy falls is very likely over Odisha during October 23-25. Isolated very heavy rainfall is also very likely over Odisha on October 24.
