Written By Unknown on Minggu, 26 Oktober 2014 | 22.45

NEW DELHI: After Hudhud that hit India's eastern coast, it's now turn of another cyclonic storm 'Nilofar' to keep country's weather forecaster on toes. Its impact is likely to be felt mid-week in Kutch area of Gujarat.

The new cyclonic storm, formed in Arabian Sea, will however not be as intense as Hudhud. Nilofar is expected to bring heavy to very heavy rains in Kutch area of north Gujarat and adjoining Pakistan coast on Wednesday-Thursday.

The Indian meteorological department (IMD) on Sunday predicted that the 'Nilofar' will intensify further into a "severe" cyclonic storm during next 24 hours.

It will turn into a "very severe" cyclonic storm on Tuesday night with touching the peak with wind speed of 145 kilometer per hour (kmph). The similar situation and wind speed will persist till Wednesday.

In its 'pre-cyclone watch for north Gujarat coast' bulletin, the IMD said, "The deep depression over westcentral and adjoining southwest Arabian Sea moved slightly northwards, intensified into a cyclonic storm, Nilofar".

On Sunday afternoon, the Nilofar centred around about 1270km west-southwest of Mumbai and 910km east-southeast of Salalah (Oman).


"It would move initially north-northwestwards during next 48 hours and then recurve (after reaching Oman coast) northeastwards towards north Gujarat and adjoining Pakistan coast during subsequent 72 hours", the country's weather forecaster said.
