The deep depression over the Bay of Bengal is likely to intensify into a cyclonic storm
Fishermen were asked by the IMD on Sunday to be cautious while venturing into sea along the Odisha coast in view of a deep depression over the Bay of Bengal, with the system likely to intensify into a cyclonic storm.
A depression over east-central Bay of Bengal moved east-north-eastwards, intensified into a deep depression today and lay centered over east-central Bay of Bengal, about 950 km east-southeast of Gopalpur, the MeT Department here said. The system is most likely to intensify into a cyclonic storm in 24 hours and move north-eastwards to reach close to north Myanmar coast shortly. Thereafter, it will recurve initially north-northwestwards skirting Myanmar coast and then north-westwards towards the of north-west Bay of Bengal, it said.
While sporadic rainfall may occur in 11 districts in the central and north Odisha on October 26 and 27, weather elsewhere in the state would be generally dry during the next 24 hours, but the sky would be cloudy, Director of the Meteorological Centre here, Sarat Chandra Sahu said. However, Distant Cautionary Signal Number One (DC-I) has been hoisted at all ports in Odisha and fishermen are advised to be cautious while venturing into interior and distant sea along Odisha coast during the period.
The withdrawal line of southwest monsoon continues to pass through Lat.22 N/Long.94 E, Lat.19 N/Long.90 E, Lat.16 N/Long.85 E, Tirupathi, Bengaluru, Mangalooru, Lat.13 N/Long.70 E and Lat.13 N/Long.60 E. Conditions are becoming favourable for further withdrawal of southwest monsoon from the remaining parts of the country during next 2 - 3 days. The Depression over eastcentral Bay of Bengal moved east-northeastwards and lay centred at 1730 hours IST of yesterday, the 22nd October 2016 over the same region near Lat.14.9 N/Long.92.0 E about, 370 kms north-northwest of Port Blair and 490 kms southwest of Yangon (Myanmar).
It continued to move east-northeastwards and intensified into a Deep Depression over Arakan coast and adjoining eastcentral Bay of Bengal and lies centred at 0830 hours IST of today, the 23rd October 2016 near Lat. 15.5 N/Long. 93.0 E about, 420 kms north of Port Blair and 360 kms west-southwest of Yangon (Myanmar). The system is most likely to intensify further into a Cyclonic Storm during 24 hours. It is likely to move northeastwards and reach close to north Myanmar coast by today evening. Thereafter, it is likely to recurve initially north-northwestwards skirting Myanmar coast and then northwestwards towards northwest Bay of Bengal. The cyclonic circulation over southeast Arabian Sea and adjoining Lakshadweep area now lies over southeast Arabian Sea and neighbourhood and extends between 3.1 & 5.8 kms a. s. l. The western disturbance as an upper air cyclonic circulation over northern parts of Jammu & Kashmir and neighbourhood has moved away east-northeastwards.
A fresh western disturbance as an upper air trough in mid tropospheric westerlies runs with its axis at 3.1 kms a. s. l. roughly along Long.64 E to the north of Lat.32 N. System is likely to move east-northeastwards. In the regions where the southwest monsoon has withdrawn: Day temperatures were appreciably to markedly above normal in some parts of Assam and Meghalaya and of coastal Andhra Pradesh; appreciably above normal in some parts of east Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi, Himachal Pradesh, Rayalaseema and of south interior Karnataka and were above normal in some parts of Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland-Manipur, Mizoram-Tripura, West Bengal and Sikkim, Bihar, west Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha and of Telangana and in remaining parts of coastal Andhra Pradesh.
