Depression zone formed - a warning to fishermen

Posted on: 18/Sep/2018 12:03:23 PM
The weather bureau has warned that as the sea would be extremely turbulent, the fishermen should not venture into the sea today (18th September) and tomorrow (19th September).

The director of the Chennai Meteorological Centre, S. Balachandran, explained that due to the cyclonic formation in the upper layers of the atmosphere over the Bay of Bengal, there has been widespread rain in Tamil Nadu. Further, the depression zone formed over the Bay of Bengal will intensify to become a deep depression zone and hence the sea will be turbulent.

So, the fishermen from Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and from the coastal Tamil Nadu and Andhra are warned not to venture into the sea,

There are prospects of mild rain in most of the northern coastal districts of Tamil Nadu and a few places in the interior districts as well.
