Parts of Andhra Pradesh will receive light rain over the next three hours, accompanied by thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds of 30 to 40 km/hr, the weather department has warned. A yellow warning has been issued for 11 districts including Konaseema, West Godavari, Krishna, Bapatla, Prakasam, Nellore, Chittoor, Tirupati, Annamayya, YSR Kadapa and Sri Sathya Sai. The Met Department has advised people to stay alert. The warning covers the next three hours, with thunderstorms and lightning expected in several districts.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The three-hour window for light rain is unusually short, meaning residents in the 11 districts should prepare for sudden weather changes. The yellow alert is a cautionary measure, not a severe warning, but thunderstorms with lightning can disrupt travel and outdoor work. The Met Department has not extended the alert beyond the next three hours, leaving the forecast open for later updates. The key next step is for people in the warned districts to stay alert and avoid open areas during thunderstorms.
