Cyclone Tej To Transform Into Severe Cyclonic Storm; Check Route & Live Tracking

IMD said that cyclone Tej is expected to transform into a severe cyclonic storm by Sunday. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted that cyclone Tej will become a severe cyclonic storm by Sunday. The cyclone is also expected to cross Yemen Oman coasts between Al Ghaidah (Yemen) & Salalah (Oman) on October 25. The storm is expected to intensify into VSCS during the next 24 hours. While initial predictions had suggested Tej would be headed towards the western coastline of India and possibly hit Mumbai and other coastal areas of Gujarat, the latest path of the storm shows that it will spare the Indian coastline altogether. In the Southwest Arabian Sea, the sea conditions are expected to become a significant sea condition from October 22 morning to October 23 morning.

Below is the Cyclone Tej live tracker map (by windy) which shows the forecast for the next 12 hours. While initial forecast prediction had interpreted the possible cyclonic storm (now called Tej) to be headed towards the western coastline of India and possibly hit Mumbai and other coastal areas of Gujarat, the latest path of the storm shows that it will spare the Indian coastline altogether. As per IMD's latest update Cyclone Tej is heading towards Yemen-Oman coasts and will possibly make landfall on October 25.

A low-pressure area over the southeast and the adjoining southwest Arabian Sea had developed into a depression resulting in cyclonic storm. The deep depression over southwest Arabian Sea moved west-north westwards with a speed of 24 kmph during past 6 hours, i Tej is very likely to move west northwestwards till October 22, morning, northwestwards thereafter till October 24, morning and then north northwestwards. It is likely to cross Yemen-Oman coasts between Al Ghaidah (Yemen) and Salalah (Oman) around early morning of October 25. It is likely to head for the Yemen-Oman Coast. As it closes it to the coast, it will weaken because of entrainment, friction and proximity of the coast. But this will happen around late 24th and early 25th October, tentatively. #CycloneTej — Skymet (@SkymetWeather) October 21, 2023
