Low Pressure in Bay of Bengal Brings Rain Relief Amid El Niño Impact in Telangana
IN · Published Sep 11, 2026
• Telangana is expected to receive significant rainfall over the next three days due to a low-pressure area that has formed over the Bay of Bengal.
• This system is forecast to move towards Chhattisgarh and Gujarat, offering some relief from the ongoing monsoon deficit.

Impact & Risks

The strong El Niño has led to a severe monsoon deficit in Telangana, with August and September showing particularly low rainfall levels. This has caused prolonged dry spells and higher-than-normal daytime temperatures, ranging from 35°C to 38°C in many areas. Hyderabad has also faced elevated temperatures and reduced rainfall, which could impact agriculture and water resources. While the low-pressure system may bring temporary relief, the overall monsoon performance remains poor, raising concerns about drought-like conditions in some districts.
