Heavy to very heavy rainfall along with gusty surface wind is likely to occur in some areas of Odisha due to formation of a low pressure over the Bay of Bengal today.
Under the influence of upper air cyclonic circulation, a low pressure area has formed over northwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining coastal areas of Odisha and gangetic West Bengal today, the meteorological centre here said.
Therefore, rain and thundershower is likely to occur at most places over Odisha.
Heavy to very heavy rainfall is likely to occur at one or two places over the districts of interior Odisha and heavy rainfall at one or two places over coastal region during next 24 hours, the meteorological centre said.
Gusty surface wind from southeasterly direction in north Odisha and northwesterly direction in south Odisha with the wind speed reaching 35 to 45 kmph and gusting up to 55 kmph is likely to prevail along and off Odisha coast.
Sea condition would be moderate to rough along and off Odisha coast and fishermen were advised to be cautious while venturing into sea.
