Meteorologists forecast a third low‑pressure system to develop over the Bay of Bengal on November 13, with potential but uncertain effects on Tamil Nadu's coast.
The New Indian Express reports that a third low‑pressure system is likely to form over the Bay of Bengal on November 13, according to the Indian Meteorological Department. This system follows two earlier disturbances that have already moved across the region this week.
Low‑pressure systems over the Bay typically bring strong winds, heavy rainfall and the possibility of coastal flooding. While the exact track of the November 13 system is still being modelled, forecasters warn that Tamil Nadu could experience sudden downpours and gusty conditions, though the severity remains unclear.
State disaster management officials are monitoring the situation closely and have urged coastal districts to stay alert, keep drainage channels clear, and follow any advisories issued by the meteorological agency.
The development underscores a broader pattern of active weather in the Bay of Bengal as the post‑monsoon season transitions into winter, a period that often sees cyclonic activity intensify.
