The weather centre also said that state would receive rainfall on Monday night and Tuesday accompanied by thunderstorm and lightning due to the low-pressure over adjacent areas of Northwest Bay of Bengal. "It will move to the surrounding areas of Gangetic West Bengal towards the sea at a distance of 5.8 kilometres from sea level," the IMD said adding that low-pressure could lead rainfall in the parts of Telangana.
