Low-pressure likely near Andaman on April 30

India is likely to witness a low-pressure area near South Andaman Sea around April 30.

The IMD bulletin for April 26 said that a low-pressure area is likely to develop over south Andaman Sea and adjoining southeast Bay of Bengal around April 30, and it is likely to become more marked over the same region subsequently.

Initially it is likely to move north-north-westward and then north-north-eastward towards

Myanmar-Southeast Bangladesh coasts during subsequent three-four days.

Under its influence, squally weather with wind speed reaching 40-50 kmph is very likely over South Andaman Sea and adjoining southeast Bay of Bengal from April 30 for subsequent 48 hours. It advised fishermen not to venture into these areas.

It forecast widespread rain and thundershowers over Andaman and Nicobar Islands with scattered heavy to very heavy falls.

Scattered to fairly widespread rain and thundershowers likely over East and Northeast India and over parts of peninsular India.

Isolated rainfall likely over the rest of the country outside Saurashtra and Kutch where dry weather is likely to prevail, it said.
More details on the prediction is available on the earlier post of Weather India.
