**Andhra Pradesh Braces for Heavy Rains as Low-Pressure Systems Intensify**
**VIJAYAWADA:** Andhra Pradesh is on high alert for the next three days as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts moderate to heavy rainfall across the state, triggered by a combination of low-pressure systems and the monsoon’s approach.
The state is already experiencing widespread rainfall due to the impact of what is described as the “Shakti Cyclone.” The IMD warns of gusty winds and heavy downpours, particularly in coastal regions.
Specifically, today, the districts of NTR, Guntur, Palnadu, and Krishna are expected to bear the brunt of the rainfall, with wind speeds reaching 50-60 kmph.
Adding to the concern, a new low-pressure area is predicted to form over the west-central Bay of Bengal and adjoining North Bay of Bengal around May 27th. Authorities anticipate this system will intensify within two days, bringing heavy rainfall to Coastal Andhra and Yanam on May 26th and 27th. Rayalaseema is also expected to receive light to moderate showers with thunderstorms and winds of 30-50 kmph.
The IMD has issued warnings of possible hailstorms accompanied by winds of 50-60 kmph, potentially gusting up to 70 kmph in Coastal Andhra on May 26th.
Meanwhile, the Southwest Monsoon is expected to arrive on the Kerala coast within the next two to three days, subsequently advancing into southern parts of the country.
Officials are urging the public to remain vigilant and take necessary precautions in light of these weather developments. A low-pressure system has also formed in the South Arabian Sea and is expected to weaken into a depression, potentially contributing to heavy rainfall in Andhra Pradesh.
