Bhubaneswar, May 22: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Thursday said that a low pressure area is likely to form over west-central and adjoining north Bay of Bengal around May 27.
According to the Met Department, conditions in the Bay of Bengal are becoming favorable for a low-pressure area to form over the west-central Bay around May 27th. However, models show significant divergence regarding its intensification and movement.
It further added that the weather system is likely to become more marked during the subsequent 2 days.
"The conditions over the Bay of Bengal are becoming favourable for the development of a low pressure area over west-central Bay of Bengal around 27th May. Currently, there is a large divergence among models with respect to intensification and movement," the IMD said in its tropical weather outlook today.
"However, there is consensus about the development of low pressure area around 27th May and its further intensification during the subsequent 2 days," the outlook added.
