Starting today, January 8, Tamil Nadu is expected to experience heavy rainfall due to a low-pressure area that has developed over the Bay of Bengal, following a deep depression formed over the equatorial region of the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal, which can travel to Andhra Pradesh. The cyclone warning centre has also issued a number one warning for several ports, including Vizag, Machilipatnam, Nizampatnam, Krishnapatnam, Gangavaram, and Kakinada.

On January 5, around 5:30 PM, a deep depression developed over the central Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal, leading to the formation of a low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal and the equatorial region of the Indian Ocean.
