The India Meteorological Department has identified a new weather system over the Andaman Sea, predicting it may intensify into a depression by October 31, even as Cyclone Arnab weakens inland.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an alert regarding the formation of a second distinct weather system over the Andaman Sea. According to the latest meteorological updates, this developing system is expected to gain strength and potentially evolve into a depression by October 31.
This development occurs at a time when the remnants of Cyclone Arnab are moving further inland. The cyclone has been observed to weaken significantly as it progresses away from the coast, reducing its immediate threat to coastal regions.
Meteorologists are closely monitoring the trajectory of the new system in the Andaman Sea to assess its potential impact on the eastern coast of India. The timing of this new formation suggests a period of continued meteorological activity in the region during the latter part of October.
Residents in vulnerable coastal areas are advised to stay updated with the latest weather advisories from the IMD to prepare for any changes in weather conditions.
