Within the span of 24 hours from 08:30 am as on Thursday, Kalingapatnam that recorded a whopping three-digit fall received 6 mm of rains, Machilipatnam 2 mm, Visakhapatnam 0.7 mm, Narsapur 0.4 mm and Kakinada recorded merely 0.1 mm of rains.

As per Skymet Weather, the reason for these rains can be attributed to the Depression which was over West Central Bay of Bengal. As of now, this system is moving towards Gangetic West Bengal and is likely to weaken into a well-marked low-pressure area. Due to this, the rainfall activity in Andhra Pradesh is likely to reduce.

However, a trough is running from Madhya Pradesh to Telangana and the easterly winds from the Bay of Bengal are increasing moisture over the coastal areas of Andhra Pradesh. Due to this, scattered rains will continue over the coastal districts of the state but Rayalaseema may see isolated light rains for one to two days.

Districts such as Visakhapatnam, Kalingapatnam, Kakinada, Narsapur, Tuni and Vijayawada are most likely to witness scattered rains.
