Deep Depression Over Bay of Bengal to Bring Heavy Rainfall Across Eastern India
A deep depression over the Bay of Bengal has intensified and is expected to move northwest, crossing the Odisha-West Bengal coast by Monday afternoon. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts heavy to extremely heavy rainfall in Odisha, West Bengal, and parts of eastern India until July 29 or 30, with isolated heavy rain in north Andhra Pradesh and sub-Himalayan districts. Strong winds and rough sea conditions have prompted warnings for fishermen to avoid venturing into the sea along affected coasts.
