INCOIS Issues Red Alert for Kerala Coast Due to High Waves and Swell Surge

The Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) has issued a red alert for the Kerala coast, warning residents and fishermen about the increased likelihood of high waves and swell surge phenomena. This advisory comes as part of ongoing efforts to ensure public safety amid adverse marine conditions.

The alert suggests that waves are expected to reach heights of 3 to 5 meters, particularly affecting coastal regions from 50 kilometers north of Pozhiyoor to 50 kilometers south of Kozhikode. INCOIS has recommended that mariners exercise caution and avoid venturing into the sea during this period.

This swell surge is attributed to weather patterns that may result from recent changes in sea dynamics and atmospheric conditions in the region. Authorities are urging the local populace to stay updated through official announcements and to adhere to safety recommendations.

Fishermen are advised to secure their boats and necessary equipment and to refrain from fishing activities until the alert is lifted.

Monitoring of the situation will continue, and updates will be provided as necessary. Residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and avoid coastal activities until conditions normalize.
