On Monday, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) canceled the yellow alert previously issued for six Kerala districts: Kollam, Pathanamthitta, Alappuzha, Kottayam, Ernakulam, and Idukki. The IMD forecasts heavy rainfall of 7-11 cm at isolated locations in Kerala over the next 24 hours, with the likelihood of very heavy rainfall (12-20 cm in 24 hours) on November 22 and 23. The presence of a cyclonic circulation over Kanyakumari and strong north-easterly winds from the Bay of Bengal towards south-east India may lead to rain and thunderstorms in isolated areas across Kerala for the next four days. Thunderstorms with lightning and gusty winds up to 30-40 kmph are anticipated until Thursday.
