Cyclone Mocha, which is now over the Bay of bengal, won't affect the shores of odisha or Andhra Pradesh, according to IMD authorities. The cyclone's sustained wind speeds range from 110 to 120 kph, with gusts up to 130 kph, as it moves towards bangladesh and Myanmar. IMD spokesman Mohapatra stated, "As of now, IMD has not issued any kind of warning for odisha regarding wind or rainfall."
Additionally, he warned that the deep waters will be extremely choppy and requested that all kinds of fishing operations and small boats be put on hold until sunday in the andaman Sea and the southeast and central Bay of Bengal. As the depression moved west-northwestward, a deep depression formed over the southeast Bay of Bengal. IMD forecasts that this system will most likely proceed in a northwesterly direction before veering to the north-northwest and gradually intensifying into a cyclonic storm over the same region this evening.
The weather service predicted on thursday night that Cyclone Mocha was gathering power and was on track to become a very severe cyclonic storm by friday morning, packing gusts of up to 135 kmph and expected to proceed towards the Bangladesh-Myanmar coast. According to the india Meteorological Department, the cyclonic storm was over the south-east Bay of bengal around 5:30 pm, some 520 km west of port blair and 1,100 km south-southwest of Cox's Bazaar, a fishing port in Bangladesh.
