STORYLINE:
Wind-driven rain pelted the shores of western India as Cyclone Biparjoy pushed into the coast with the potential for a significant storm surge and flash floods from heavy rain.
Biparjoy had maximum sustained winds of 120 kph (75 mph) with gusts up to 140 kph (86 mph) and was forecast to weaken as it moved into India’s Gujarat state.
In India’s Kutch district, near Jakhau port where the cyclone made landfall Thursday, authorities were expecting significant sea surge.
The bazaars and beaches in Mandvi, India, usually a bustling coastal town known for its wooden boat-makers, were deserted Thursday under government shutdown orders.
Heavy winds and rains already had uprooted some trees in the area.
A storm surge of 2 to 3 meters (6.5 to 10 feet) above the tide is likely to inundate low-lying areas and possibly as high as 6 meters (19.5 feet) in places, India’s Meteorological Department said.
The two nations had moved 173,000 people to shelters ahead of the cyclone, and preparations were made to provide water and maintain communications after the storm passed.
