HYDERABAD: The India Meteorological Department (IMD), Hyderabad issued a heavy to very heavy warning for a few districts of Telangana from July 11 to July 13 following a low-pressure area forming over Bay of Bengal.
The IMD Hyderabad issued orange warning for districts such as Adilabad, Komaram Bheem, Warangal, Khammam, Nalgonda, Nirmal, Nizamabad, Mahabubabad, Warangal (rural and urban), Jangaon, Siddipet, Asifabad, Mancherial, Jagtial, Rajanna Sirsilla, Karimnagar, Peddapalli, Suryapet, Yadadri Bhuvangiri and Kamareddy.
