Cyclone Fengal Effect: Rains for next two days
Mysuru: Normal life was disrupted this morning as heavy rains continued to lash Mysuru and surrounding regions since last evening. The downpour stems from Cyclonic Storm Fengal, which originated in the Bay of Bengal and made landfall in North Tamil Nadu and Puducherry.
Under the influence of this weather system, widespread rains have affected Mysuru, Bengaluru, Mandya, Chamarajanagar and Kodagu districts.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) reported this morning that the depression over north coastal Tamil Nadu and Puducherry had moved westward and weakened into a Well-Marked Low-Pressure Area at 5.30 am over North Interior Tamil Nadu. The remnant system is expected to re-emerge over the southeast and adjoining east-central Arabian Sea, off the Kerala-Karnataka coast, around Dec. 3.
Meteorologists in Karnataka have warned that Bengaluru and its neighbouring districts, including Mysuru, will continue to experience the after-effects of Cyclone Fengal. The IMD has advised people to remain cautious while travelling and to be prepared for possible disruptions due to heavy rains.
