Ground fall may be between 6 to 8 PM. Wind speed at Puri is about 120 kmph. Paradeep - Sea has gushed in to about 200 meters.
About 80 kms off Gopalpur now.
Some people in Paradeep still reluctant to vacate their homes. They fear the administration will not be able to guard their belongings from theft. Govt. officials say they are trying to evacuate using police force.
One casualty of human life. A woman dies as a tree branch falls.
Rains also in west Odisha districts. WESCO resorts to power cut even before heavy rain and high wind speed comes.
Even though Hirakud flood gates have released a lot of water, the dam is still at an unsafe level. The predicted rains in Chhatisgarh may spell doom for the dam.
The Mahanadi delta is already waterlogged. Drains in Cuttack full and congested.
Police has said it cannot take responsibility of protection of the lavish and costly puja mandaps in Cuttack and Bhubaneswar.
