Sub: Depression over eastcentral and adjoining westcentral Arabian Sea
Latest satellite imageries and surface observations indicate that a depression has formed over eastcentral and adjoining westcentral Arabian Sea moved northwestward and lay centred at 1730 hrs IST of today, the 31st May 2010 near latitude 15.50N and 63.50E, about 1050 km southwest of Mumbai, 1050 km south-southwest of Naliya and 1200 km south-southwest of Karachi.
The current environmental condition and numerical weather prediction (NWP) models suggest that the system would intensify gradually into a cyclonic storm and continue to move initially in a northwesterly direction for next 48 hours and then recurve northeastwards towards Gujarat and adjoining Pakistan coast.
Under the influence of this system, fairly widespread rainfall with isolated heavy to very heavy falls would commence over coastal areas of Gujarat from 3rd June 2010. Squally winds with speed reaching 45-55 kmph would commence along and off Gujarat coast from 2nd June 2010.
Sea condition will be rough to very rough along and off Gujarat coast from 2nd June 2010. Fishermen are advised not to venture into the sea during that period.
Next bulletin will be issued at 0230 hrs IST of 01st June 2010.
