IMD 'Fresh Cyclone Likely for Andhra in 24 Hours'

A fresh cyclone is likely to form within the next 24 hours, the India Meteorological Department (IMD), Amaravati, said in a special bulletin issued on Saturday morning. 

According to the bulletin, the low-pressure area that formed over the South Andaman Sea and adjoining North Andaman Sea and Andaman and Nicobar Islands on Friday moved



west-northwestwards. 

It lay as a well-marked low-pressure area over the southeast Bay of Bengal and adjoining areas of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the Andaman Sea at 8:30 am on Saturday.

The system is very likely to move west-northwestwards and concentrate into a depression over the same region during the next six hours.
