The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and the Indian Coast Guard have been put on high alert and fishermen asked not to venture out in the sea. Because Cyclone ‘Fani’ is likely to intensify into an ‘extremely severe’ cyclonic storm in the next 12 hours. IMD says, “It is very likely to move northwestwards till May 1 evening and thereafter recurve north-northeast wards and reach Odisha coast by May 3 afternoon with maximum sustained winds of speed 170-180 kilometers per hour gusting to 200 kmph”. The wind speed of a cyclonic storm is 80-90 kilometres per hour with wind gusting up to 100 kmph. In case of an 'extremely severe cyclonic storm', the wind speed goes up to 170-180 kmph and could gain the speed of 195-200 kmph.
