Weather conditions across Odisha remain predominantly dry, with no significant rainfall activity expected over the next seven days. However, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast light to moderate fog in nine districts of the state during the early morning hours.

According to the Regional Meteorological Centre, a trough extending from northwest Uttar Pradesh through Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Odisha to the north coastal Andhra Pradesh is currently prevailing at an altitude of 3.1 km above mean sea level.

The weather department has not issued any weather alerts for any district of Odisha. The overall weather pattern is likely to remain largely unchanged over the coming week.

Fog Alert for Nine Districts

The IMD has forecast light to moderate fog at isolated places in nine districts during the early morning and morning hours over the next two to three days.

The districts likely to experience fog are:

1. Sundargarh
2. Sonepur
3. Boudh
4. Kandhamal
5. Angul
6. Dhenkanal
7. Koraput
8. Nayagarh
9. Cuttack

Residents and commuters in these districts are advised to remain cautious during early morning travel due to reduced visibility.

Low-Pressure Area Likely Over Bay of Bengal

Meanwhile, a low-pressure area is likely to form over the southeast Bay of Bengal around November 13. It is expected to move northwestwards and may intensify into a well-marked low-pressure area within the subsequent 24 hours.

However, the system is unlikely to have any significant impact on Odisha’s weather. Coastal districts may experience cloudy skies, but rainfall is not expected at present.

The weather department has indicated that predominantly dry conditions will continue across the state for the next seven days.

Temperature Variation Across Odisha

During the last 24 hours, several places in Odisha recorded temperatures 3 to 4 degrees Celsius below normal. However, Koraput recorded a maximum temperature variation of 5.2 degrees Celsius above normal.
