“The Tauktae will become even stronger on its way and cross the Gujarat coast at a speed of 155 to 165 kmph up to 185 kmph. We do not expect it to be a major storm but it is a big and intense process, ”said Sunitha Devi, who is in charge of storms at IMD.

Over the next 12 hours, the Tauktae will continue to intensify its grip on the sea. You may move to the northwest wards and reach the coast of Gujarat on Monday evening. The program is overseen by Doppler RADAR Goa weather.

Tauktae intensified its rapid pace from depression to hurricane Friday. There was also a strong storm on Saturday. "The Tauktae was strengthened by 65 kmph in the last 24 hours due to heat and energy from the sea," said Roxy Mathew Koll, a meteorologist at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology.

“With Typhoon Tauktae, this will be the fourth consecutive year of a tropical storm on the Arabian Sea. This is also the third year in a row that the hurricane has moved closer to the west coast of India. Sea temperatures in the Arabian Sea have risen sharply during the last century and this has led to an increase in the intensity of storms in the Arabian Sea… global warming has presented us with new challenges such as hurricanes, which require careful monitoring of high resolution and precision using on-site platforms such as buoys. . Improving the Indian Ocean Observation System (IndOOS) and introducing global warming to climate models could help us cope with the challenges of severe storms in the future, ”he said in a statement.

The sea level above the northeast Arabian Sea will rise dramatically (up to 14 feet high) with wind speeds (up to 64 knots) on Monday and Tuesday. The sea level will be very high (9-14 meters wave speed / 38-63 wind speed in kts) along the coast and north of Maharashtra on Monday morning.It is very likely that it will be very difficult to go up and down south of Gujarat coast from Monday morning and very high has occurred from Monday.
