Believe it or not, cyclone Nilofar has decided not to invade India

It is difficult to believe but, it seems even mother Nature has taken a liking for India and has ensured that Cyclone Nilofar, that was expected to strike the Gujarat coast, has decided to stay away from India zeenews.com.
As indicated by the Meteorological Department, the cyclone that was scheduled to hit the coast of Gujarat on November 1, has weakened and turned into a depression – its impact will only be restricted to a moderate rainfall. The cyclone has weakened after moving in the northeast direction and has become a low pressure area.
Places in Saurashtra and Kutch are experiencing moderate rainfall and the wind speed is expected to be around 35-45 kilometers per hour along the north Gujarat coast.
It may be recalled that as a precautionary measure, people from around 40 villages had already been evacuated and nine teams of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) had been deployed to tackle any untoward incident. This had been done based on the experience of cyclone Hudhud that had struck the coast of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha - crores of rupees worth of property was lost due to this natural calamity.
