Heavy rains continued to pound North Andhra Pradesh for the second consecutive day on Friday, disrupting normal life across Vizag city and other parts of the region. The downpour left several areas waterlogged, particularly affecting World Tourism Day celebrations scheduled in various locations across North Andhra in the morning.

According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) in Amaravati, the region can expect more sporadic thunderstorms accompanied by lightning over the next three days. The forecast covers North Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Yanam, South Coastal Andhra Pradesh, and Rayalaseema. While rainfall was widespread across coastal Andhra Pradesh and Yanam, the southwest monsoon remained active in these areas but weak in the Rayalaseema region.

Among the affected areas, Kalingapatnam in Srikakulam district recorded the highest rainfall with 10 cm between Thursday morning and Friday morning, followed closely by Vizag city, which received 9 cm of rain during the same period. Other parts of North Andhra Pradesh reported rainfall between 2 cm and 4 cm.

The IMD has urged residents to remain cautious, particularly in low-lying and flood-prone areas, as water levels continue to rise. The weather conditions may continue to affect daily activities, and people are advised to plan their movements accordingly to avoid disruptions.

With more rain on the way, authorities are on high alert, and citizens are encouraged to stay updated with weather forecasts and heed any advisories issued by local authorities.
