The agency stated that the system may strengthen further over the next 48 hours. It is expected to move northwest and could turn into a strong cyclone over the southwest Bay of Bengal. Meteorologists are closely monitoring the development as it may influence weather patterns in several regions.

The Telangana Weather Man explained two possible scenarios for the cyclone’s path. If the storm forms between November 26 and 28, it may impact north Andhra Pradesh and eastern Telangana districts. Under this pattern, moderate rainfall is expected in Hyderabad and several parts of Telangana.

If the cyclone forms between November 28 and 30, it may intensify significantly and move toward Odisha, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. In that situation, Telangana may not get rain but could face a sharp drop in temperatures, leading to severe cold conditions across the state.
