A low-pressure area over the southwest Bay of Bengal is moving towards Tamil Nadu and is set to bring heavy rainfall along India’s east coast.

By 18th-20th December, the system will intensify, causing heavy rain over coastal Andhra Pradesh and Odisha.

Areas like West Bengal, interior Odisha, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, and eastern Telangana will also see moderate showers.

Heavy rains may trigger flash floods and water-logging. Minimum temperatures may rise slightly, but daytime temperatures may dip. This is likely the last significant system for December.

Stay safe, alert and keep an eye on the radar.
