The India Meteorological Department issued a forecast of heavy to very heavy rainfall for Andhra Pradesh and Odisha today, warning of possible disruptions.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a weather outlook indicating heavy to very heavy rain across the states of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha for today. The forecast, released early this morning, points to widespread precipitation that could intensify in the afternoon and evening.
Authorities in both states have been advised to monitor the situation closely and to activate emergency response mechanisms where needed. Local administrations are urging residents to stay alert, avoid low‑lying areas, and secure property against potential waterlogging.
Meteorologists note that the current system follows a pattern of monsoon depressions that have historically caused flooding in parts of the eastern coast. Residents are advised to keep emergency kits ready and to follow updates from district disaster management officials.
The IMD will continue to update its forecasts throughout the day as more data becomes available, and further advisories may be issued if conditions worsen.
