Cyclone Helen that had brought heavy rain and strong winds in coastal Andhra Pradesh in the past 24 hours has weakened further and now lies as a low pressure area over Andhra Pradesh. This low pressure system will now become insignificant in about 24 hours so rain will remain subdued in South India during the next two days.
In North India, night temperatures that had risen in the last two days will again fall during the next two days. Change in wind conditions, from northerly to easterly owing to Cyclone Helen had led to this rise in minimum temperatures but now, as the weather system is weakening, winds will again become northerly to drop night temperatures over North India.
