The Central Meteorological Department has warned (Rain Alert) that there is a possibility of light rain in Kerala during Uthadam and Onam. A strong low pressure over North-East Madhya Pradesh has intensified into a severe depression again. According to the Central Meteorological Department, a low pressure area has formed from north Kerala coast to south Gujarat coast.
The cyclone currently over Myanmar is likely to reach over Bangladesh and northwest Bay of Bengal in the next two days.
