The ongoing heavy rainfall poses a low to moderate risk of flash floods in several districts of Odisha, Chhattisgarh, coastal Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Jharkhand, and Gangetic West Bengal through Friday morning. Odisha, already severely affected with lakhs impacted by previous rains, is particularly vulnerable. Strong winds in Chhattisgarh and thunderstorms in Odisha may exacerbate the situation. Widespread rain in Bihar, Jharkhand, and Gangetic West Bengal could lead to localised flooding and disruptions. Coastal Karnataka and Kerala may also face waterlogging and travel delays due to heavy rain.
