Bhubaneswar, Aug 10 (UNI) Latest satellite imageries and synoptic observations have indicated that a fresh low pressure area has formed over north west Bay of Bengal off the Orissa, West Bengal coast.

The MET sources here warned that under its impact rain and thundershower were likely to occur at many places over coastal Orissa and a few places over interior Orissa during the next 24 hours.

There would also be heavy to very heavy rain at isolated places over coastal Orissa during the next 48 hours,the officials said and warned the fishermen not to venture into the sea during the period.

A low pressure formed on the Bay of Bengal last week had turned into a deep depression leading to heavy rains at several places in Orissa.

Torrential rains caused by the deep depression virtually paralysed life in coastal Orissa for two days and wreaked havoc in Cuttack city which remained submerged under rain water for three days.
