According to the india Meteorological Department (IMD), a low-pressure region has developed off the coasts of south odisha and north andhra pradesh across the northwest Bay of bengal and the neighboring west-central Bay of Bengal.

In the next 24 hours, the cyclonic circulation is highly likely to travel westward through odisha and south Chattisgarh, which may lower the intensity of Telangana's rainfall, according to IMD authorities. For the following two days, the state will see heavy rain. For the majority of the state, a yellow alert with heavy rainfall, lightning, and strong gusts of 40 to 50 kph was issued.
