Jawad will weaken off West Bengal coast

Cyclone Bulbul had a wind speed of 120 kmph in West Bengal two years ago. When Cyclone Jawad reaches West Bengal coast, it will weaken and wind speed will be 60-70 kmph. Jawad is not an extremely severe cyclone like Fani, Hudhud or Phailin. He said that as of now it is a severe cyclonic storm and we are expecting wind speed of 90-100 kmph near the coast. Not all develop the eye of a cyclone, he said. Usually severe to very severe cyclones develop ‘eye’. But we are determining the ‘centre’ with the help of satellite images. We have a lot of buoy observations, coastal observations, stratometers, sea surface winds that we are looking at. Also, all Doppler radars along the coast are actively monitoring the Jawad cyclone.
