Monsoon expected to hit Kerala in 24 hrs, says IMD

In what may come as a relief from heat and humidity, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) in its latest weather bulletin announced that the southwest monsoon was expected over the coast of Kerala in the next 24 hours.

However, some meteorologists said that the onset of monsoon could be mild over the Kerala coast due to the impact of cyclone 'Biparjoy', the first storm brewing in the Arabian Sea this year. It (the cyclone) could also hinder the progress of the monsoon, the meteorologists added.

The Met office said the severe cyclonic storm is likely to move nearly northwards and intensify into a very severe cyclonic storm. It would then move north-northwestwards during the subsequent three days. However, the IMD has not yet predicted any major impact on countries adjoining the Arabian Sea, including India, Oman, Iran and Pakistan.
