Tropical cyclones, often known as typhoons or hurricanes, are among the most dangerous weather events. They are severe circular storms that form over warm tropical oceans and feature sustained wind speeds of more than 119 kilometers per hour as well as heavy precipitation.
The very severe cyclonic storm ‘Biparjoy’ intensified into an extremely severe cyclonic storm and is likely to hit south-southwest Gujarat and adjoining Pakistan coasts. The cyclone is expected to make landfall between the Kutch district in Gujarat and Pakistan s Karachi on June 15.

Cyclone Biparjoy will further intensify into a severe cyclonic storm in the next 48 hours and move towards northwest India during the next three days. Adjoining areas of the west-central and south Arabian Sea, and the coasts of north Kerala, Karnataka, and Goa are therefore likely to be most impacted by the storm.
