Cyclone Likely to Form in Bay of Bengal; Andhra Pradesh Braces for Possible Impact

Vijayawada, India – November 23, 2025 – The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a bulletin stating that a cyclone is very likely to form over the Bay of Bengal around November 26th. While the latest forecast doesn’t currently predict heavy rainfall for Andhra Pradesh, state authorities are monitoring the situation closely.

The IMD reported that a low-pressure area over the Strait of Malacca and adjoining south Andaman Sea has intensified and is expected to move west-northwestwards, developing into a depression by November 24th. This depression is then predicted to strengthen into a cyclonic storm over the southeast Bay of Bengal around November 26th.

“While the IMD has confirmed the potential cyclone development, they have not yet specified which coastal states will be affected,” an APSDMA spokesperson said. “We are closely monitoring updates and will issue further advisories as needed.”

Currently, no heavy rainfall warnings have been issued for Andhra Pradesh, nor have any advisories been released for fishermen. However, the Andhra Pradesh State Disaster Management Authority (APSDMA) anticipates light to moderate rainfall in the Prakasam, SPSR Nellore, YSR Kadapa, Tirupati, and Chittoor districts on Monday.

Adding to the complexity, another low-pressure area is predicted to form over the Bay of Bengal around November 25th. This new system is expected to develop near the Comorin region and adjoining areas of southwest Bay of Bengal and Sri Lanka. Authorities continue to urge residents to stay informed and monitor official weather updates.
