The weatherman has issued a yellow alert for Bengaluru Urban and Rural on November 11, meaning the two districts will receive fairly widespread heavy rainfall that day.
A similar yellow alert has been issued for the districts of Mysuru, Mandya, Hassan, Chamarajanagar and Kodagu on November 12.
The rainfall will be caused by the formation of a cyclonic depression over the Bay of Bengal which is moving towards the Tamil Nadu coast, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.
As per the forecast, the whole of South Interior Karnataka, barring Davangere and Ballari, will receive widespread moderate to heavy rainfall in isolated areas over the next four to five days. "The cyclonic circulation over the South Andaman Sea in the Bay of Bengal is expected to transform into a low-pressure point and reach the northern coast of Tamil Nadu on November 11. Under its influence, most parts of South Interior Karnataka are likely to experience heavy rainfall," said an official at the IMD Bengaluru.
On Monday, Bengaluru experienced light rainfall throughout the day. The minimum temperature has touched 20 degrees Celsius, bringing some chill in the air, especially during night hours.
