A low-pressure area has formed over the northwest Bay of Bengal near the West Bengal-Odisha coast, likely intensifying over the next two days and bringing widespread heavy rainfall to Odisha until Monday. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued orange and yellow alerts for several districts, warning of strong winds, rough sea conditions, and potential hazards like waterlogging and landslides. Fishermen are advised not to venture into the sea from July 25 to 27, and local authorities have been urged to prepare for possible weather-related emergencies.
