The weather department issued the alert to Eluru, Alluri Sitaramaraju (ASR), Parvatipuram Manyam, Srikakulam, Vizianagaram, West Godavari, East Godavari, NTR and Krishna districts.
“Heavy to very heavy rains with extremely heavy rains likely at one or two places of Eluru, ASR, East Godavari, West Godavari and NTR (districts),” said the Met Department in a press release, forecasting the weather for Sunday.

According to the Met Department, a low-pressure area over central and adjoining north Bay of Bengal is now seen as a well-marked low pressure area over northwest and adjoining central Bay of Bengal at 8:30 am on Saturday.
“The associated cyclonic circulation extends up to 7.6 km above mean sea level tilting southwestwards with height. It is likely to move slowly nearly northwards and intensify into a depression over northwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining areas of Gangetic West Bengal, north Odisha and Bangladesh coasts around September 9,” said the department.
