A low-pressure area has developed over the Bay of Bengal, which is expected to bring significant rainfall across various regions of Odisha, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) announced Monday.

This development is attributed to an upper air cyclonic circulation over the northeast Bay of Bengal, and another similar system is anticipated around September 25.

The IMD forecasts heavy rain continuing in Odisha through September 28, with an 'orange' warning issued for Keonjhar and Mayurbhanj, expecting gusty winds and severe weather conditions.
