Cyclonic storm to hit the coast on 12th October
Posted on: 09/Oct/2014 2:22:07 PM
The deep depression over north Andaman Sea has intensified into a cyclonic storm ‘Hudhud’ which is mostly likely to intensify into a very severe cyclonic storm.
The cyclonic storm ‘Hudhud’ lay centered about 1150 km southeast of Gopalpur. It was crossing Andaman and Nicobar Islands close to Long Island. Thereafter, the system would continue to move west-northwestwards intensify further into a severe cyclonic storm during the next 24 hours, subsequently into a very severe cyclonic storm.
The cyclonic storm would cross north Andhra Pradesh and adjoining Odisha coast between Visakhapatnam and Gopalpur by October 12.
Last year, on October 12, a very severe cyclonic storm ‘Phailin’ had hit Odisha coast at Gopalpur causing extensive damage.
