Latest forecasts according to the JTWC say that Visakhapatnam will be epicenter of passage of Cyclone Hudhud. Impact when? Late Saturday night. Night of October 11, 2014. But the rains and winds will start much sooner. They have already started. Hudhud is knocking at the door.
One point worries us. Much of the Indian media is taking as Gospel truth what the IMD is saying. The Indian Met. Dept. is saying presently that wind speeds in Visakhapatnam when the cyclone hits the city will be 155 Kph.
The JTWC says (In its latest bulletin) the wind speeds will be 195 Kph, gusting up to 240 Kph.
One fears the storm is going to turn out to be more intense than as predicted by the IMD
