Meteorological authorities warn that a new cyclone may develop over the Bay of Bengal, while the state of Tamil Nadu is likely to experience dry conditions next week.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a preliminary warning that a new cyclone could form over the Bay of Bengal in the coming days. The agency is monitoring the low‑pressure system closely and has advised local authorities to prepare for possible impacts.
In a separate advisory, the IMD noted that Tamil Nadu is expected to see dry weather conditions over the next week. The dry spell is attributed to a high‑pressure ridge over the region, which is expected to suppress cloud formation.
Officials in coastal districts are urged to keep emergency services ready and to inform residents about potential hazards. No immediate evacuation orders have been issued, but authorities are on alert for any rapid changes in the weather pattern.
Residents are advised to stay updated through official weather bulletins and to follow any instructions from local disaster management authorities.
