Kyarr cyclone to move west-southwards of mumbai

Ahmedabad: Super cyclonic storm “Kyarr” over the sea is probably going to step by step move towards the Sultanate of Oman coast however would cause precipitation in some components of Gujarat within the next few days, a MeT official said today.

The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) conjointly suggested fishermen from the state to not venture into the ocean for the next 2 days in view of the rough weather. The cyclone is presently settled around 830-kilometer west-southwest of the metropolis and is very likely to maneuver west-northwestwards until Wednesday, the IMD said during a release.


Kyarr is very likely to maintain the intensity of a super cyclonic storm till today evening and gradually weaken thereafter, it said.

“While Gujarat is spared of the super cyclone, it would bring non-seasonal rain at isolated places,” IMD’s Ahmedabad center director Jayanta Sarkar said. “The super cyclonic storm Kyarr is likely to move towards the Oman coast during the next five days. However, the system would bring light to moderate rain at isolated places during the next five days,” he added. Strong winds would create high sea waves of up to 3.5 to 4.5 meters on the coast, he said.
