As per MET reports, a low pressure area is very likely to form over southeast Bay of Bengal and its neighbourhood during the next 24 hours, the Meteorological department has said. It is likely to move west-northwestwards, concentrate into a depression and reach near North Tamil Nadu coast by November 11 early morning and bring widespread rainfall in several regions of the state.
