Another cyclonic storm is developing over the Bay of Bengal and may hit the Andhra Pradesh coast on November 3. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said a low-pressure area over the southeast Bay of Bengal could become a depression within six hours and a cyclone within 24 hours. The system is expected to move towards the west-central Bay of Bengal by November 2. The IMD expects it to be weaker than Cyclone Arnab. Meanwhile, a seven-member central team has reached Andhra Pradesh to assess the damage caused by Arnab. Initial losses are estimated at ₹4,600 crore.
