Bay Low-Pressure System May Intensify Into Depression, Odisha To Remain Dry

Bhubaneswar, Nov 12: A low-pressure area is likely to form over the southeast Bay of Bengal on November 13 and intensify into a depression around November 15. However, Odisha is unlikely to experience any significant impact, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.

According to the IMD, a cyclonic circulation over the South Andaman Sea and adjoining areas is likely to trigger the system. It may move west-northwestwards and intensify into a well-marked low-pressure area by November 14 before developing into a depression the following day.

Odisha is expected to experience dry weather from November 12 to 18, with no rainfall warning issued for any district.

However, light to moderate fog is likely at one or two places in 13 districts, including Koraput, Kandhamal, Khordha, Jajpur, Bhadrak, Jagatsinghpur, Cuttack, Kendrapada, Mayurbhanj, Keonjhar, Balasore, Angul and Dhenkanal.

The IMD said dry conditions and seasonal morning fog are likely to prevail across the state over the next seven days.
