Cyclone Senyar Live Updates: The low pressure system over the Bay of Bengal will intensify into cyclonic storm Senyar in the next 24 hours. It is expected to create rough sea conditions and bring heavy rain with strong winds to coastal areas of Andaman Sea.
The system, which is currently moving west-northwest, is likely to bring rainfall to southern states such as Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the coming days. “Avoid sea travel, take essentials, follow official updates and move to safe shelters if necessary,” the IMD said in a weather warning on Monday.
Where will heavy rains occur?
According to the Meteorological Department, Andaman and Nicobar Islands will experience heavy to very heavy rainfall between November 25 and November 29 (Tuesday to Saturday).
Heavy to very heavy rain is also likely over Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Mahe, Lakshadweep, Coastal Andhra Pradesh and Yanam, according to the IMD.
Will Oisha also get rain?
If the low pressure system over Malacca Strait and nearby South Andaman Sea further strengthens, some coastal areas of Odisha may experience rain between November 25 and 27, the IMD said.
How will the system move?
IMD scientist Sanjeev Dwivedi told ANI that the system will move “in a west-northwest direction”.
When will it become a cyclone?
The system is likely to strengthen and may become Cyclone Senyar on November 26.
The name “Senyar” was given by the United Arab Emirates. It usually means “lion” and is another name on the list of cyclonic storms for the northern Indian Ocean
