2.12 Deep Depression over southwest Bay of Bengal( 8th -10th Nov. 2015)
2.12.1 A cyclonic circulation lay over Equatorial Indian Ocean and adjoining southwest Bay of Bengal extending upto 3.1 kms a.s.l. on 4th and over southwest Bay of Bengal and neighbourhood on 5th and 6th. It lay as a low pressure area over southwest and adjoining southeast Bay of Bengal with associated cyclonic circulation extending upto 4.5 kms a.s.l. on 7th and as a well marked low pressure area over southwest Bay of Bengal and neighbourhood in the evening of 7th. It concentrated into a Depression and lay over southwest Bay of Bengal, centred near Lat. 10.7° N/Long. 83.7° E, about 400 kms southeast of Chennai, 440 kms east-southeast of Puducherry, 420 kms east of Karaikal and 480 kms east-northeast of Jafna (Sri Lanka) at 0300 UTC of 8th. It moved west-northwestwards and intensified into a Deep Depression and lay over southwest Bay of Bengal, centred near Lat. 11.2° N / Long. 81.4° E, at 1800 UTC of 8th. It further moved west-northwestwards and lay over southwest Bay of Bengal,centred near Lat. 11.6° N / Long. 80.3° E, about, 60 kms east-southeast of Puducherry, 150 kms southeast of Chennai at 0300 UTC of the 9th. Then it moved northwards and lay over southwest Bay of Bengal centred near Lat. 12.1° N / Long. 80.0° E very close to north Tamil Nadu coast near north Puducherry at 1200 UTC of 9th. Moving westwards, it crossed north Tamil Nadu coast close to Marakanam (north of Puducherry) near Lat. 12.2° N / Long. 80.0° E around 1400 UTC of 9th and lay centred near Lat. 12.4° N / Long. 79.6° E at 0000 UTC of 10th. It then moved westwards and weakened into a Depression and lay over north Tamil Nadu centred near Lat. 12.4° N / Long. 79.3° E, about 80 kms east of Tirupattur and 60 kms south-southeast of Vellore at 0300 UTC of 10th. It moved slowly westwards and weakened into a well marked low pressure area at 0600 UTC and lay over north Tamil Nadu and neighbourhood on 10th afternoon. It weakened into a low pressure area and lay over north Tamil Nadu and adjoining south interior Karnataka in the evening of 10th & became less marked on 11th. However, the associated cyclonic circulation extending upto 5.8 kms a.s.l. lay over Kerala and neighbourhood on 12th.

2.12.2 Other features observed
The lowest ECP was 996 hPa from 0600 UTC to 1200 UTC of 9th. The maximum estimated mean wind speed was 30 kts from 1800 UTC of 8th to 0000 UTC of 10th. At 0600 UTC of 9th, the system centre was located about 40-50 km southsoutheast of Puducherry. The lowest MSLP of 997.5 hPa was recorded at Puducherry and the ECP was 996 hPa. At 1200 UTC of 09th, the system was located about 30 km east-northeast of Puducherry with 996 hPa MSLP over Puducherry and ECP also about 996 hPa. However, Puducherry recorded the lowest MSLP of 991.7 hPa at 0900 UTC (1430 IST) of 9th.
As the system was located very close to the coast when the system maintained the intensity of a deep depression, wind speeds recorded by hourly coastal observations 8 provided the crucial input for determination of MSW during the time of landfall. Highest wind speed of 25 knots has been recorded by Puducherry observatory at 0000 and 0500 UTC of 09th. The maximum observed mean wind speed of 25 kts was also reported by Buoy 23099 (13.1/80.3) at 0300 UTC of 9th. The system moved initially west-northwest, northwards and then westward direction.
2.12.3 Weather and damage caused
Heavy rain at a few places with very heavy rain at isolated places occurred over south interior Karnataka and coastal Andhra Pradesh. Heavy to very heavy rain at a few places with extremely havy rain occurred at isolated places over Rayalseema and Tamil Nadu.
As the system caused extremely heavy rainfall, it caused extensive inland flooding over coastal districts of north coastal Tamil Nadu. About 31 deaths were reported in Tamil Nadu and Puducherry in association with the damages caused by the system (flood related casualities and due to wall collapses in kutcha houses).
