The India Meteorological Department (IMD), in its latest bulletin, said the depression in east-central Bay of Bengal moved west-northwestwards with a speed of 7 kmph during the past six hours.

The system intensified into a deep depression in the evening of Tuesday over the same region. It lay about 690 km southeast of Paradip in Odisha, 740 km south-southeast of Sagar Island in West Bengal and 710 km south-southeast of Khepupara in Bangladesh.
