However, this weather system is not likely to intensify any further, thus moderate showers with one or two heavy spells may occur over Konkan and Goa, Coastal Karnataka and North Kerala around August 9 to 11.
As a result, it is anticipated that vigorous Monsoon will not retort along the West Coast including Konkan and Goa, Coastal Karnataka and Kerala for at least the next one week or so.
