Bhubaneswar: A low-pressure area has formed over the Northwest Bay of Bengal as of 0530 hrs IST today, September 2, 2025, due to the influence of an upper air cyclonic circulation over northeast Bay of Bengal and adjoining Myanmar coast.
According to the regional India Meteorological Department, this system is expected to become more marked over the same region in the next 24 hours.
According to the latest weather update, the low-pressure area will move west-northwestwards across Odisha in the subsequent 24 hours, potentially bringing heavy to very heavy rainfall and thunderstorm activity to various districts.

In light of the weather forecast, fishermen are warned not to venture into the sea between September 2 and 4 due to rough sea conditions. Residents in affected districts are advised to stay alert, avoid unnecessary travel, and take necessary precautions against possible weather disruptions.
