Thiruvananthapuram. Due to the effect of a cyclonic circulation located over central Rajasthan, on 4th September, very heavy rains occurred in western Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh,

while due to dense cloud formation over the Bay of Bengal, heavy rains were recorded in many parts of Andhra Pradesh as well as Chhattisgarh.

According to the Meteorological Department, the low pressure area formed over the Bay of Bengal may gradually turn into a depression.

This low pressure area is likely to persist for the next 2-3 days. A resistant wind is flowing from the northern part of Nellore in coastal Andhra Pradesh.
