DiscussionThe story behind the news.

Andhra Pradesh SDMA has issued an advisory for possible lightning in the area identified in its notice as “prk-ulavapadu Mandal”. The alert was issued at 11:49:16 p.m. on November 2, 2026, and is valid from 11:50 p.m. on November 2 until 2:50 a.m. on November 3. All times are Indian Standard Time. This is a warning about possible lightning, not confirmation of a lightning strike or reported damage.

During thunderstorms, the advisory tells people to avoid trees, towers, poles, fields and open spaces, and to seek shelter in safe buildings. It also asks people to follow SDMA guidelines. The affected-area label applies to the mandal named by the issuer; it should not be read as a warning covering an entire district or all of Andhra Pradesh.

The advisory expires at 2:50 a.m. on November 3. Its validity should not be extended beyond that time without a fresh official update. No casualty, closure, evacuation or local damage information is established by this notice.
