The US Navy's JTWC (Joint Typhoon Warning Center) has confirmed that cyclone Hudhud will hit the Indian coast on the Odisha-Andhra Border (at Dharmavaram) on Sunday morning (October 12, 2014) IST.
The winds when the cyclone makes landfall will be 150 kph gusting up to 185 kph. Quite a big storm.
The JTWC calls it Tropical "Cyclone" 3B now
The JTWC says in its 8:30 AM (IST) Bulletin....
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 03B (THREE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 589 NM SOUTH
OF CHITTAGONG, BANGLADESH, HAS TRACKED WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 12
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS.
The JTWC has already called it a "Tropical Cyclone" 3B. When is the IMD going to name it "Hudhud"? When?
