Low-Pressure System Over Bay of Bengal Likely to Form Cyclone Arnab by October 26
A low-pressure area has formed over the east-central and adjoining southeast Bay of Bengal and is expected to intensify into a cyclonic storm named Arnab by October 26, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The system is forecast to move west-northwest towards the north Andhra Pradesh and south Odisha coasts, potentially making landfall around October 28. Heavy rainfall and strong winds are expected in coastal Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, and parts of West Bengal from late October, prompting local authorities to prepare and advise caution, especially for fishermen.
