A cyclonic circulation currently active over the Andaman Sea is poised to generate a low-pressure area in the Bay of Bengal, triggering significant weather changes across India, according to the India Meteorological Department. The formation is expected to influence atmospheric conditions across at least 11 states, bringing heavy rainfall and gusty winds to various regions.
The meteorological department has issued weather alerts for multiple states in anticipation of the system's impact. Residents in affected areas have been advised to prepare for heavy downpours and strong winds, with warnings particularly focused on coastal and adjacent regions that typically experience significant weather disturbances from systems originating over the Bay of Bengal.
In the national capital region, air quality has deteriorated with stagnant wind conditions exacerbating pollution levels. Delhi-NCR residents have reported oppressive atmospheric conditions as wind speeds remain subdued, trapping pollutants near the surface.
The weather system is being closely monitored by forecasters as it develops. Citizens are urged to remain updated with official meteorological advisories and take necessary precautions to protect life and property ahead of the expected weather deterioration.
