IMD predicts heavy rains in seven states over the next few days

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) reported on Friday (October 8, 2021) that a cyclonic circulation exists over the East-central Arabian Sea and extends up to the mid-tropospheric level, tilting southwestwards with height, and is very likely to persist for the next 4-5 days with slight northward movement.

According to the weather service, fairly widespread to widespread light to moderate rain is very likely over several states in the coming days as a result of its influence. For the next 4-5 days, the IMD predicts isolated heavy rains over Goa, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Kerala. Rains are possible in coastal Karnataka, coastal Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Puducherry from October 10 to October 12.
The IMD also forecasts light to moderate rainfall in most areas, with isolated thundersqualls (wind speeds 50-60 kph) over the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

On Friday, the southwest monsoon withdrew from some more parts of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, most of Rajasthan, entire Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and some parts of Uttar Pradesh, according to the Met Department. It also stated that a Low-Pressure Area is very likely to form over the north Andaman Sea around October 10, and that it may become more noticeable and move west-northwestwards towards south Odisha and the north coastal Andhra Pradesh coast over the next 4-5 days.
