Rain expected in Telangana as Bay of Bengal depression moves inland
Nine districts in Telangana may see heavy showers on November 2 as a weather system weakens.
A weather system in the southeast Bay of Bengal is expected to bring rain to Telangana, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The system is forecast to intensify into a cyclonic storm before moving towards the Andhra Pradesh coast.
IMD Centre Hyderabad Head S. Stella said the system will likely weaken into a depression by the time it reaches Telangana. She stated the state is unlikely to feel the impact of a cyclonic storm because the clouds will shear off as it weakens.
Telangana is expected to receive light to moderate rainfall between November 2 and November 4. Isolated heavy rainfall is predicted for certain areas on November 3 and November 4.
On November 2, heavy rainfall is very likely at isolated locations in Adilabad, Kumaram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Jagtial, Mahabubnagar, Nagarkurnool, Wanaparthy, Narayanpet and Jogulamba Gadwal. On November 3, heavy showers are expected in Mahabubnagar, Nagarkurnool, Wanaparthy, Narayanpet and Jogulamba Gadwal.
Hyderabad is also expected to see light to moderate rainfall during this period, Ms. Stella added. The system is projected to move west-northwestwards and reach the Andhra Pradesh coast on the morning of November 3.
