A new low-pressure zone has formed over the Bay of Bengal. The Meteorological Centre has informed that there are prospects that this low-pressure zone may intensify soon.

The director of the Chennai Meteorological Centre, Puviyarasan explained in this regard that a low-pressure zone has formed over the Indian Ocean and the adjacent south-central Bay of Bengal. This may drift towards the northwest direction and transform into a high-level depression zone in the next 24 hours.

Due to this, the South Bay of Bengal may be turbulent and hence the fishermen are warned not to venture into the sea in the southeast Bay of Bengal and the adjacent Indian Ocean.

The dry weather may persist as regards the Chennai Metro City and its suburbs.
