The Department of Meteorology’s Marine Forecasting Division at the National Meteorological Centre has issued a strong winds and rough seas bulletin for the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, effective from 3PM, today (November 11).
According to the three-day forecast, wind speeds in designated sea areas on day 1 are expected to reach 40 to 50 kmph, occasionally gusting up to 60 kmph, causing these waters to be rough at times. Conditions are expected to intensify on day 2, with wind speeds increasing to 50 to 60 kmph and gusting up to 70 kmph, making the sea areas very rough and prompting requests for naval and fishing communities to remain vigilant.
Similar rough sea conditions and strong wind alerts remain applicable for the designated zones through Day 3. (Newswire)
