Cyclone Nada has not even died down completely and another low pressure area has already started brewing in Bay of Bengal.

The system is presently seen as a cyclonic circulation over Sumatra and equatorial Indian Ocean. It is likely to move in west-northwest direction and intensify into a low pressure area in another 24 hours.

Weather models indicate that system will further gain more strength and concentrate into a depression during the subsequent 48 hours.

At present the system is far away from the Indian coast to affect the weather. However, it is likely to heavy rains and thundershowers over Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the next 24 hours.

According to Skymet Weather, this will be the fourth low pressure area to form in South Andaman Sea during this Sea. The first low pressure area had intensified into Cyclone Kyant, while the second one had strengthened into a depression.

The third low had strengthened into Cyclone Nada, which had given ended the prolonged dry spell over Tamil Nadu and adjoin regions of Peninsular India.

Nada had given moderate to heavy rainfall over Tamil Nadu including Chennai during the last 48 hours. Kerala, South Karnataka and South Coastal Andhra Pradesh has also recorded light to moderate showers due to this system.

Nada is now seen as a low pressure area over Kerala and adjoining region and is likely to dissipate soon.
