Reportedly, a low-pressure area will be formed with the effect of the possible cyclonic circulation on May 6 which is likely to become more marked during the subsequent 24 hours.
Different weather models have predicted that the low-pressure may further intensify into a cyclone and cross the Odisha-West Bengal coast around May 10. However, IMD has not yet predicted the probable path of the cyclone.
It is to be noted that for the next two days the wind speed will be 40 to 50 kilometers per hour in the South Andaman Sea and the adjoining southeastern Bay of Bengal.
Meanwhile, the European and American models of Windy have predicted a cyclone. Nevertheless, the intensity and the movement are different in both models.
According to the European Model ECMWF, the possible cyclone will be moving along the coast of Odisha with less impact on the State. On the other hand, the American Model GFS has predicted the cyclone to form with a higher intensity and will move towards Bangladesh.
It is pertinent to mention that, after a scorching heatwave for several days, heavy rain accompanied by gusty winds prevailed in Cuttack and Bhubaneswar on Tuesday evening.
