A low-pressure area is likely to form over the southeast Bay of Bengal and adjoining east-central Bay of Bengal around October 23, 2026, according to the latest weather information. The developing system could move west-northwestwards and may intensify further, prompting authorities to advise fishing and naval communities to remain vigilant.
The expected development could influence marine weather conditions across parts of the Bay of Bengal and surrounding sea areas. Changes in atmospheric conditions associated with the system may lead to unsettled weather, while sea conditions could become rough in affected areas as the system develops.
According to the notice, particular attention is required in the sea areas located between 10°N and 20°N latitude and 80°E and 95°E longitude. Fishing communities, naval personnel and others engaged in maritime activities in these waters are advised to exercise caution and follow official weather updates.
Those currently operating in the specified sea areas are advised to move towards safer areas as instructed and take appropriate precautions before conditions deteriorate. Fishing vessels and other boats should pay close attention to official marine weather forecasts and advisories before heading out to sea.
The possible formation of the low-pressure area is an important development to monitor over the coming days. However, the eventual strength, movement and impact of the system will depend on how it evolves after formation.
People involved in fishing and maritime activities are encouraged to stay informed through updates issued by the Department of Meteorology and relevant authorities. Further official advisories may provide additional information about the system’s development and any changes to sea conditions.
