Cyclone Arnab weakens, but Andhra, Odisha still under rain alert
Cyclone Arnab is losing power and has weakened into a depression system. However, authorities in Andhra Pradesh and Odisha have kept rain alerts in place as the system continues to bring wet weather, expected to turn into a low-pressure area by Thursday evening.

What happened
Cyclone Arnab has weakened into a depression, but heavy rain alerts remain active for Andhra Pradesh and Odisha.
Why it matters
If you live in Andhra or Odisha, the rain alert means you might have to adjust your plans for the next few days—whether it’s school, work, or daily chores. Even if the cyclone has weakened, heavy rains can still cause flooding, power cuts, and road blockages that affect your everyday life.
Impact
Expect continued heavy rainfall, potential flooding, possible power outages, and disruptions to transportation and agriculture. Authorities may issue further advisories or evacuation orders if conditions worsen.
