Low-Pressure System

A strong low-pressure system is forming in the Bay of Bengal, near the Odisha and West Bengal coasts, by Friday. The weather office predicts it will slowly move towards Rajasthan. Because of this, scattered rains will begin in North Coastal Andhra from July 4, spreading across both states by July 5. Things will get intense on July 5, with gusty winds and rain expected to hit almost all districts from Adilabad to Hyderabad.
