A low-pressure system developing in the southeast Bay of Bengal and the adjoining Andaman Sea intensified into a depression on Sunday. It is expected to further intensify into a cyclone on Monday, which will be the first in the North Indian Ocean region since 2000. If this happens, the cyclonic storm will be known as Asani, a name coined by Sri Lanka.
