Weather experts said parts of the district near the Western Ghats were likely to record up to 150mm rainfall during July 10 to 24, thanks to the formation of a low-pressure system over the Bay of Bengal near Andhra Pradesh that would lead to a surge in southwest monsoon activity in the Arabian Sea. While the main city areas and agricultural belts are not likely to receive adequate rainfall, dams are expected to get replenished, resolving drinking water and even irrigation issues to an extent.
