IMD Dedicates Cyclone Warning and Marine Weather Services Decision Support System to the Nation on 12th October, 2026

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) dedicated the Cyclone Warning and Marine Weather Services Decision Support System (DSS), an interactive WebGIS-based platform, to the nation. The launch occurred during the bi-annual Pre-Cyclone Exercise Meeting for the post-monsoon season of 2026. The platform integrates critical cyclone and marine weather data—such as observed and forecast tracks, intensity, wind distribution, storm surge, and district-wise rainfall warnings—into a single user-friendly interface. Designed for disaster management authorities, government agencies, and the public, the DSS aims to improve disaster preparedness, facilitate timely action, and enhance public safety during severe weather events.
