Cyclone Ockhi became a depression which then weakened into a well-marked low over the Arabian sea before it could hit India’s western coast. That’s the latest information from the Indian Meteorological Department.
So after leaving behind a trail of destruction in southern Tamil Nadu, Chennai, and Lakshadweep, Ockhi is finally done.
People in Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh hold on. This still doesn’t mean you can put your umbrellas away.
The latest MeT forecast says parts of Gujarat (Valsad, Surat, Navsari, Bharuch, Dang, Tapi, Amreli, Diu, and Daman, Dadra, and Nagar Haveli districts) are very likely to receive light to moderate rainfall till morning on December 6.
North Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh are also very likely to see similar rainfall patterns till noon today.
Maharashtra’s Palghar, Thane, Raigarh, Greater Mumbai, Dhule, Nandurbar, Nashik, Jalgaon, Ahmednagar and Pune districts are likely to get the light to moderate rainfall (till morning on December 6).
A MeT bulletin had earlier said it was probably the Ockhi system would dissipate over the sea before reaching land due to unfavorable environmental conditions.
