Many places in the coastal districts from Srikakulam to Krishna received rainfall ranging from six cm to two cm. Hindupur in Anantapur district, received 7 cm. According to the Director of the Cyclone Warning Centre here, J.V.M.

All coastal districts from Guntur to Srikakulam were likely to receive widespread rain. A cyclone alert had been issued to the districts. If it intensified, the Telangana districts might also receive heavy rain, he added. Dr. Naidu told The Hindu that the South-West Monsoon was still prevalent and the North-East Monsoon had not set in.
