Cyclone warning issued for all these places due to low pressure, wind and heavy rain

 A low pressure area is likely to form over the east-central Arabian Sea off the north Karnataka-Goa coast. It will soon start moving northwards and its speed will also be very fast. This low pressure area is likely to intensify further by May 22.

At present, the system is centred near 16.5 degrees North and 71.5 degrees East.

It is likely to intensify further and intensify into a deep depression by May 22.

Due to this, heavy to very heavy rainfall is likely to occur over west coastal Gujarat, Konkan and Goa, Karnataka and Kerala during the next 6 to 7 days.

Sea surface temperature and other conditions are creating a favourable environment for the system to strengthen further.

This depression is likely to intensify into a cyclonic storm. It is likely to intensify into a cyclonic storm over the northeast Arabian Sea off the south Gujarat and Saurashtra coasts.

If it develops into a cyclone, it will be the first cyclonic storm of the year.

According to a report by Skymet Weather, the tropical cyclones that form in the region this season are not very predictable.

Accurate information about their track, strength and duration is available with a bit of delay.

After becoming a cyclone, such systems usually move over the sea for some time and then move in some direction.

Due to the formation of a low-pressure area, Konkan, south coastal Gujarat and south Saurashtra are likely to receive heavy to very heavy rainfall for the next 3-4 days.

If it develops into a cyclone, it may also move towards Yemen-Oman, Pakistan coast or Saurashtra-Kutch.

Whether it develops into a cyclone or not will be clear after the next 36 hours.

Meanwhile, in Odisha, Balasore, Bhadrak, Jajpur, Kendrapara, Cuttack, Jagatsinghpur, Puri, Khordha, Nayagarh, Ganjam and Gajapati are likely to experience thunderstorms and light to moderate rainfall, with a warning of Kalbaisakhi rainfall at some places. In particular, thunderstorms and winds gusting up to 50 kmph are likely to occur in Mayurbhanj, Sundargarh, Keonjhar, Bargarh, Gajapati, Rayagada, Koraput, Malkangiri and Nabarangpur.
