The new cyclonic format prevailing over the Bay of Bengal has been named `Mandous `!
The low-pressure zone formed over the Bay of Bengal is set to drift from the west towards the northwest and intensify into a strong depression zone!
Indian Meteorological Centre (IMD) has informed us that this is likely to intensify into a cyclonic format before 8th December.
A low-pressure zone was formed today (Monday, 5th December) morning at 5.30 AM. This would drift towards the west before tomorrow and intensify into a depression zone!
Subsequently, by 8th December, it will move further west and may transform into a cyclonic format! This cyclone has been named `Mandes;!
With the names - Nisarka, Kadi, Nivar, Purivisa Tagde, Yaas, Shaheen, Jawad, and Asaani having already been used in 2020, presently, from the first set of names given/recommended by the United Arab Emirates and Yemen, Mandes and Morza` were only available in the list!
As the names of cyclones are not to be repeated, the World Climate Centre, after checking thoroughly, chose the name, `Mandous ` and announced the same!!
