Cyclone Murasu crossed the south Andhra Pradesh coast between Nellore and Narsapur, close to Ongole, during approximately 3:30–5:30 AM IST today. IMD classified it as a Severe Cyclonic Storm at landfall. 

Wind strength: Maximum sustained winds at landfall were 100–110 km/h, gusting to 120 km/h.

By 2:30 PM today, Murasu had weakened to a Cyclonic Storm, centred about 40 km west-northwest of Bapatla and 60 km north of Ongole. Winds had fallen to 80–90 km/h, gusting to 100 km/h. Further weakening to a deep depression is expected as it moves north-northwestward inland. 

Outlook for Maharashtra this week : Dry, Easterlies keeping the Day warm, and clear Nights dropping the night Temperatures dropping a couple of Degrees.

Twin cyclones for Andhra Pradesh in post-monsoon season

As per IMD for the 1st time after 2018, 2 cyclones in same postmonsoon season (Oct-Dec) hit Andhra Pradesh (Arnab and Murasu).

In satellite era since 1980, only 6 years (1982, 1985, 1987, 2013, 2018, 2026) has seen 2 more cyclones in postmonsoon season hitting Andhra Pradesh coast.

Out of these 6 years, 4 years (1982, 1987, 2018 and 2026) are El Nino years.

Cyclone Murasu Satellite wind estimates on 2 November

Cyclone clouds reaching 15km

Latest SAR estimate (2nov 6am) from NOAA shows that strongest winds in #CycloneMurasu are concentrated in east and northeast portion of cyclone. Whereas windspeed in western portion of cyclone is lower. This mean that after cyclone eye crosses land and backward portion of eyewall reaches land than the maximum winds are expected (not in the front sector of eyewall).

The radius of 34knots wind is up to 82.22 nautical miles (152.3km). That is from center upto 152km radius of area likely to see cyclone force winds. 

However, wind extent in all 4 quadrants is not uniform, cyclone force winds are covering wider area in back sector of cyclone (SE and NE quadrant as comapred to front sector of cyclone (NW and SW quadrant of cyclone).

The maximum winds are at about 33km from center of cyclone.

Input by Vag.Dr Vineet Kumar 👇

 Whatever on Earth happens add ElNino in it 🥴

This is totally wrong message that ElNino fueled this cyclone

We need to see other factors , earth doesnt revolve only around ElNino 

See this attached graph, it shows avg. Maximum windspeed of postmonsoon season cyclones in bay of bengal during different ENSO phases

IMD BULLETIN 

Cyclone Warning : 

Date : 28-10-2026 Time of issue : 11:00:00 Validity : 6 hrs
