Posted on: 13/Dec/2018 12:42:56 PM
Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has informed there are prospects of a cyclonic format to develop over the Bay of Bengal in the next 24 hours.

It has mentioned that the low-pressure zone which formed over the southeast Bay of Bengal has intensified into a high depression zone. This may transform into a cyclonic format in the next 24 hours and may drift towards north Tamil Nadu and south Andhra.

When the above cyclone crosses the coast, high-speed winds may blow at 100 kmph to 120 kmph. Due to this, there are prospects of heavy rains in the coastal areas of northern Tamil Nadu. Hence, the fishermen are warned not to venture into the sea for the next 4 days.
