New Delhi, No one had expected Cyclone Nilam to become a severe kind of cyclonic storm but it did the same and that too just before landing along the extreme southern east coast of India. The storm is unleashing very heavy to extremely heavy rain in the south Penisular India. The night of October 31 could bring testing times for the people living in these parts.
Winds of damaging speeds are prevailing in the region and are causing damages across the region. The people living close to the sea and adjacent areas are experiencing worst ever weather. The persistent rain would keep the temperature down and a chill can be witnessed in the air.
The cyclone is likely to lash the region with rain for another 12 hours. The intensity of the rainfall would get subdued after this period as the storm will lose its energy. There are possibilities that the remnants of the cyclone would interact with the low pressure area about to form along the west coast near the southeast Arabian Sea but till then people in south India would get some reprieve from the inclement weather they are experiencing now.
