Under the influence of the system, squally wind speed reaching 40 to 50 kmph and gusting to 60 kmph is likely over central Bay of Bengal to adjoining south-west Bay of Bengal from Friday and is likely to become 50 to 60 kmph, gusting to 70 kmph on Saturday.“Sea condition is likely to be rough to very rough. Fishermen are advised not to venture into deep sea areas of central Bay of Bengal from Friday and those out at sea are advised to return to coast,” the SRC’s advisory read.
