“The cyclonic storm above the Gulf of Thailand has moved west-north-westwards at a speed of 17 km per hour and lay centred over the Andaman Sea and its neighbourhood, about 1800 km south-east of Gopalpur on Saturday afternoon. It is very likely to move west-north-westwards for some more time and then re-curve in the north-west direction and cross the Andaman islands on the evening or night of January 6,” Director, CEC, Dr Sarat Chandra Sahu said.

Sahu, however, said that the cyclonic storm is not likely to impact Odisha.
