Cyclonic storm expected near Andhra Pradesh
A deep depression over the Bay of Bengal is set to turn into a cyclonic storm by Monday morning.
It's moving toward Andhra Pradesh and could become a very severe cyclone by October 28, packing maximum sustained wind speeds of 115-125km/h, gusting to 140km/h.
The storm is expected to hit between Bapatla and Visakhapatnam, so coastal areas should be prepared for heavy rain and strong gusts.
