Thiruvananthapuram: India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Sunday forecasted more rains in Kerala till August 11 in wake of a well-marked low-pressure area over northwest Bay of Bengal. On the other hand, an offshore trough has been formed over the stretch between southern Maharashtra and northern Kerala. Similarly, a cyclonic circulation is laying over the east-central Arabian Sea. All these factors make the state prone to more rain.

Yellow alerts in the districts are as follows:
