Odisha is witnessing intense thunderstorms and heavy rainfall as Nor’Westers continue to impact various districts. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued warnings, predicting adverse weather conditions until May 18.


A cyclonic circulation over eastern Bihar and parts of West Bengal has led to the formation of strong thunderstorms. The impact of these systems is evident in Odisha, where lightning and gusty winds reaching speeds of 30-50 km/h have been reported. Additionally, the temperature in several coastal districts has dropped significantly.

Over the last 24 hours, districts like Kandhamal, Mayurbhanj, Gajapati, Balasore, Rayagada, and Sambalpur recorded substantial rainfall, with Kandhamal witnessing the highest at 60mm. While these storms bring temporary relief from intense heat, IMD warns of the risks associated with strong winds and lightning strikes.

Yellow Warnings Issued

IMD has issued yellow warnings for multiple districts, including Balasore, Bhadrak, Kendrapada, Cuttack, Puri, and Khurda, citing risks of lightning and intense downpours. Thunderstorm activity has also been forecast for inland regions such as Koraput, Nabarangpur, and Dhenkanal.

Residents are advised to take precautionary measures, avoid open spaces during thunderstorms, and secure loose objects susceptible to strong winds. Meanwhile, certain western districts like Sambalpur, Sundargarh, and Bolangir continue to endure temperatures exceeding 40°C despite the prevailing stormy conditions elsewhere.

Upcoming Weather Predictions

The Nor’Westers are expected to persist, bringing more rainfall and thunderstorms over the next few days. Authorities are urging citizens to remain vigilant, especially in flood-prone areas.

Farmers and local communities are advised to monitor updates from IMD to mitigate potential agricultural losses.
