Cyclonic storm Hamoon has intensified into a severe cyclone, but no major impact is expected in Odisha, as it crosses the State’s coast from a distance of about 200 km, the Met Department said on October 24.
“It is likely to intensify further into a very severe cyclonic storm in a few hours as the system moves in the Bay of Bengal at a speed of 21 kmph,” the IMD said in a bulletin.
