Met officials on Tuesday said severe cyclonic Storm‘Yaas’ is going to move north-north-westwards, intensify further into a Very Severe Cyclonic Storm during next 12 hours.

"It would continue to move north-north-westwards, intensify further and reach Northwest Bay of Bengal near north Odisha and West Bengal coasts very close to Chandbali-Dhamra port by the early morning of Wednesday, the 26th May," read a government statement.
