IMD Forecasts Isolated Showers and Strong Winds in Andhra Pradesh Until October 2
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts isolated light showers, thunderstorms, and strong winds in Andhra Pradesh until October 2. Wind speeds are expected to reach 30-40 km/h with gusts up to 50 km/h, mainly along coastal Andhra Pradesh, Rayalaseema, and Yanam. These weather conditions are attributed to an upper-air cyclonic circulation over the northwest and west-central Bay of Bengal and a trough extending from north interior Karnataka to Tamil Nadu.
