A new weather system developing over the Bay of Bengal is expected to bring significant rainfall to eastern and coastal India starting Friday. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the depression is likely to cause heavy to very heavy showers in multiple regions, specifically impacting West Bengal and Odisha.

While the IMD has issued these warnings to alert local authorities and residents, the exact path and intensity of the depression remain subject to change as the system moves inland. Meteorologists are monitoring the atmospheric conditions to determine the potential for flooding or infrastructure disruption in low-lying areas. Local governments in the affected states are currently preparing for the potential impact, though specific emergency measures vary by region. The IMD continues to provide updates as the depression progresses, advising residents to stay informed through official weather bulletins.
