Low-pressure area likely over Bay of Bengal around 13 October
The India Meteorological Department has forecast a low-pressure area over the southeast Bay of Bengal around 13 October. It said an upper-air cyclonic circulation is expected to develop over the North Andaman Sea and adjoining areas around 11 October.
The system is likely to become more marked after forming and move west-northwestwards towards the coasts of north Tamil Nadu and south Andhra Pradesh over the following three to four days. The IMD has not yet assessed its eventual intensity. Further clarity is expected after the low-pressure area forms.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The forecast identifies a possible system and a broad movement path, but does not yet establish how strong it could become. Coastal areas of north Tamil Nadu and south Andhra Pradesh are the locations named in its projected route. The lack of an intensity assessment leaves the system’s eventual significance unresolved. The next concrete marker is the expected circulation around 11 October, followed by possible low-pressure-area formation around 13 October.
