Weakened Tropical Cyclone Ashobaa Will Enter Oman Tomorrow Night

Cyclone Ashobaa is weakening. It will enter northeastern Oman in the Al Sharqiyah Region near Masirah Island tomorrow late night. That is the night of June 11, 2015. The towns of Hayy and Dawwah will be most affected.

It will dissipate quickly and move inland into central Oman in the Al Dakhiliyah region bringing it some rains.

Sur will get heavy rains. Muscat will receive only a drizzle.

If the storm moves inland after dissipating as a low very heavy rains are expected in coastal areas around the town of Hayy.

It is also possible that the storm might make landfall in the morning of June 12, 2015.

Since the cyclone is weakening, only winds of 55-65 km/h will be felt in the coastal areas of the country. That is the area which will receive the most rains.

It is also not certain if the cyclone will make landfall into Oman at all. The reliable European computer forecast model ECMWF, predicts a demise mid sea near the coast of the country.

IT IS EXPECTED THAT CYCLONE ASHOBAA WILL WEAKEN INTO A DEEP DEPRESSION BY THE TIME IT MAKES LANDFALL INTO OMAN. BUT THE JTWC IS BULLISH. IT EXPECTS WINDS OF 100 KM/H ON IMPACT. IT IS DOUBTFUL IF THE CYCLONE WILL ENTER OMAN AT ALL OR NOT.
