Kerala is likely to receive widespread rain across the State for the next five days, says a bulletin issued by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) here on Wednesday.
There is a persistence of westerly winds over south Arabian Sea and an increase in the depth of westerly winds and cloudiness over areas covering southeast Arabian Sea, Lakshadweep, and the Kerala coast.
Under the influence of this system, rain or thundershowers are likely to occur in most places in Kerala till June 11. A yellow alert warning of isolated heavy rainfall was issued for two districts – Alappuzha and Ernakulam – on Thursday. Though cyclone ‘Biparjoy’ has intensified into a severe cyclonic storm and is likely to intensify further in the next 12 hours, the system has moved away from the Kerala coast.
