Bhubaneswar : The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a fresh alert forecasting the development of a cyclonic circulation over the north Bay of Bengal within the next 24 hours. This system is identified as the remnant of Tropical Cyclone Wipha, and it is expected to significantly influence the regional weather pattern.

According to IMD scientist Umasankar Das, who shared the update on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, the cyclonic circulation will likely give rise to a low-pressure area over the same region within the following 48 hours. Das posted: “A cyclonic circulation (Remnant of Tropical Cyclone #Wipha) is likely to emerge over north #BayofBengal during next #24hours. Under its influence, a #LowPressure area is likely to form over the same region in the subsequent #48hours.”

The IMD has cautioned that this developing system could bring heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and gusty winds to coastal regions in the coming days. Fishermen and coastal residents are advised to remain vigilant, follow official advisories, and avoid venturing into the sea during this period.
