A trough runs from the centre of a well-marked low-pressure area over the southwest and adjoining west central Bay of Bengal to south central Maharashtra across north Tamil Nadu, Rayalaseema and north interior Karnataka at 0.9 km above mean sea level.
The north-south trough from southwest Madhya Pradesh to south Interior Karnataka across central Maharashtra and north interior Karnataka up to 1.5 km above mean sea level has become less marked.
Under the influence of these systems, thunderstorms accompanied by lightning are likely at isolated places over Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Yanam and Rayalaseema. Isolated areas in Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Yanam, and Rayalaseema will likely experience gusty winds of 40–50 kmph.
