வனூஸ் என்னும் சுறாவழி இலங்கயின் வடக்கை நோக்கி நகர்ந்து கொன்டிருபதாகா வழி மண்டல் நிலயங்கள் எச்சரிக்கை செய்த வண்ணம்
APCEDI Alert Sri Lanka-BOBW, Cyclone Fanoos (06B/TD 2), #5, 2006: Cyclone Fanoos strengthens in Bay of Bengal, threatens Sri Lanka and Southeast IndiaThe Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) and the Sri Lanka and India Departments of Meteorology are continuing to provide guidance on Cyclone Fanoos (06B/TD2) in the Bay of Bengal.
Cyclone Fanoos is located about 540 km northeast of Trincomalee, Sri Lanka or 650 km east-southeast of Chennai, Tamil Nadu and is moving to the west-northwest at 04 kt. It is slowly strengthening. The JTWC has issued 6 cyclone alerts for this system.
With the continuing increase in intensity and the movement to the west-northwest, this is increasingly becoming a serious situation for both Southeast India and Northern Sri Lanka. Both countries are warning all maritime and fishing interests in affected areas to stay in port or if at sea, to seek shelter at the closest point immediately.
Given the heavy flooding in Tamil Nadu from Cyclone Baaz, and the saturation of soils throughout much of Southeast India and Sri Lanka from subsequent tropical waves, Cyclone Fanoos has the potential to cause widespread severe to localised devastating flooding across the area in and around where it comes ashore. This includes storm surge flooding, continued flooding of large area rivers and flash-flooding in hill areas. Chennai's 2 main rivers, the Adyar and Cooum continue at or near flood stage in many areas throughout the city and in rural areas. Thus any additional heavy rain in and around Chennai in the few days has the potential to make the situation much worse. More details on the news of the flooding in Chennai can be found in The Hindu
Authorities, aid workers and residents, especially in Northern and Eastern Sri Lanka and in Tamil Nadu and Southern Andhra Pradesh should maintain extreme vigilance with this system. Government and aid workers (including all AFAP, NSRC, RRI and other affiliated aid workers) along the Sri Lankan coast and in flood prone areas, should continue to carefully monitor this system and be prepared to assist communities in which they are working should the situation warrant and the Government of Sri Lanka issue any flood or storm warnings.
