South Kerala including the capital received heavy rain yesterday. The heavy rains in the state came after the extreme low pressure over the Middle East Arabian Sea made landfall. In the night Pathanamthitta, Kottayam, Ernakulam, Malappuram, Kozhikode, Wayanad, Kannur and Kasaragod districts received rain at isolated places.
A severe depression over the central-east Arabian Sea, located off the Konkan coast, made landfall between Panaji and Ratnagiri on Saturday night. An extreme low pressure moving east-northeast is likely to weaken to a low pressure during the next 24 hours.
As the rough seas are likely to intensify, people should stay away from the danger areas as per the instructions of the authorities. Keep fishing vessels (boats, boats, etc.) safely moored in the harbor. Keeping a safe distance between boats can avoid the risk of collision. Safety of fishing equipment should be ensured. There is also a warning to avoid trips to the beach and activities in the sea.
