Odisha Braces for Heavy Rainfall and Squally Weather Through July 7th

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued warnings for heavy to very heavy rainfall in Odisha, coupled with thunderstorm activity, expected to persist until July 7th. This weather pattern is attributed to a cyclonic circulation over south Jharkhand and its neighboring areas, along with active southwest monsoon currents. Coastal regions are also anticipated to experience squally weather, with strong winds and rough sea conditions. Fishermen have been advised to avoid venturing into the sea during this period. Specific warnings, categorized as Orange and Yellow, have been issued for various districts throughout the forecast period, detailing the potential for heavy rainfall and gusty winds.
