28 Sep 2021 / Andhra Pradesh, India
Cyclone Gulab made landfall at Kalingaptnam on Sunday evening, leaving a trail of destruction in the north coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh. More than 10cm of rain was recorded yesterday (27 September) and many low-lying habitations have been flooded as rains continue to lash the State.
The cyclone has fizzled into a Depression but the system’s westward movement has raised a red alert for Maharashtra region on WCI with the IMD forecasting extremely heavy/heavy to very heavy rainfall today. The storm is expected to turn into a well-marked low pressure area today and emerge in the northeast Arabian sea and Gujarat coast around Thursday.
Below are status updates from the ports of Vizag & Gangavaram:
