A heavy downpour lashed Vijayawada on August 29 due to the cyclonic circulation over the south coastal Andhra Pradesh and neighbouring areas. The downpour which lasted for about an hour caused waterlogging in many low-lying areas and inundation of roads.
People going to offices, educational institutions and workplaces were the most-affected as the waterlogged roads caused traffic snarls.
The M. G. Road, Eluru Road and other roads in the One-Town area, Moghalrajpuram Puram, Kanuru, Gurunanak Nagar, Autonagar, Pinnamaneni Polyclinic Road remained waterlogged for a couple of hours following the downpour. Several parts of the NTR and Krishna districts also received heavy rainfall in the morning.
