We have issued an Orange warning to 13 districts, looking at the next 24 hours amd a few coastal districts have been issued a Yellow warning.”
He further said that the Sambalpur district recorded the highest rainfall in the state. “In the last 24 hours, 27.3 mm rainfall was recorded which is around 205 per cent more than the rainfall that was supposed to have occurred. The highest rainfall was recorded in Sambalpur – 171.4 mm. While Pallahara in Angul recorded a rainfall of 152 mm. Around 35 stations recorded heavy rainfall, and 8 stations recorded very heavy rainfall”, he said.According to the IMD, Odisha is very likely to receive heavy to very heavy rainfall at a few places over 10 districts and extremely heavy rainfall at some places in three districts and an orange alert has been issued in view of the same.
“Heavy to Very Heavy Rainfall (7 to 20cm) is very likely to occur at a few places over the districts of Sambalpur, Angul, Boudh, Sonepur, Bargarh, Deogarh, Bolangir, Sundergarh, Keonjhar and Jharsuguda with Extremely Heavy Rainfall (>20cm) at one or two places over the districts of Sambalpur, Sonepur and Boudh”, IMD said in a statement.
The IMD further informed that temporary water logging is likely in low-lying areas and underpass road due to the rains and added that there could be poor visibility during intense spells of rain and traffic congestion in urban areas. Further, the IMD asked people to avoid staying in vulnerable Kutchha houses as there is a chance of possible damage to Kutchha Road and wall collapse of vulnerable Kutchha houses during intense rainfall. “Arrangement for drainage of excess water from a nursery bed, preparations for sowing of paddy crops, seed collections may be done.
