According to the IMD, a cyclonic circulation lies over north Andaman Sea & neighbourhood between 3.1 & 5.8 km above mean sea level.

It is likely to become more marked and move west-northwestwards, towards south Odisha-north Andhra Pradesh coasts during the subsequent 4-5 days.
Light to moderate rains at most places with isolated thundersquall (wind speed 50-60 kmph) and heavy to very heavy falls are expected over Andaman & Nicobar Islands during the next 24 hours, followed by isolated thunderstorms (wind speed 40-50 kmph) and heavy falls during the subsequent four days.
Meanwhile, a cyclonic circulation lies over east-central Arabian Sea and extends up to mid-tropospheric levels, tilting southwestwards with height. It is very likely to persist during the next 4-5 days.
Under its influence, fairly widespread to widespread light to moderate rains are very likely over southern peninsular India and Maharashtra during the next 5 days. Isolated heavy falls may also lash Maharashtra, South Interior Karnataka and Kerala & Mahe during the next 4 days; and Coastal Karnataka, Coastal Andhra Pradesh & Yanam, Tamilnadu, Puducherry & Karaikal during 10th-12th.
As for the mercury levels, both daytime and nighttime temperatures will be extreme or quite higher than normal over much of the Western Himalayan region, in southern Sikkim, and the northeastern end of the North East (Arunachal Pradesh) at least until late October.
