On Thursday, the north coastal regions of Andhra Pradesh faced heavy to very heavy rainfall as a deep depression moved west-northwest and made landfall near Kalingapatnam. This weather system unleashed torrential downpours in districts like Srikakulam and Visakhapatnam, particularly through Wednesday night. The meteorological department forecasts that heavy rainfall will persist in Vizianagaram and adjacent areas, although the system is expected to weaken by Friday.
