Light rain will fall in two states soon. These states are Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The rain will happen between the 15th and 18th of the month.

Weather experts say there is a trough in the Bay of Bengal. A trough is an area of low air pressure. This trough brings rain to nearby places.

There is also a low-pressure area today. This is another weather sign. It can also bring rain.

The rain will not be heavy. Experts say it will be light rain only. People in both states should check the weather in their area.

This kind of rain is common in this season. Farmers and other people watch the weather forecast closely. It helps them plan their work.
