The Arabian Sea, which borders the Arabian Peninsula, typically spawns tropical cyclones in the southeastern portion of the body of water, offshore of western India. [3] About 48.5% of cyclones dissipate without making landfall, or moving ashore, [4] and around one in three storms move toward the Arabian Peninsula. [3]
Traditionally, areas of tropical cyclone formation are divided into seven basins. These include the North Atlantic Ocean, the eastern and western parts of the North Pacific Ocean, the Southwest Pacific, the Southwest and Southeast Indian Oceans, and the North Indian Ocean (Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal).
Cyclone Asna was a rare occurrence, in that it formed over land as a depression, intensified into a cyclone and moved into the Arabian Sea in the month of August. Only three similar incidents have happened since 1891; in 1976, 1964 and 1944. [14] [6] [4]
On 6 June, a Depression formed in the Arabian Sea, which was later named Biparjoy and rapidly intensified to a Category 1-equivalent cyclone.

On 16 October 2023, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) began monitoring for the formation of a cyclonic circulation in the Arabian Sea. [10] In the Arabian Sea, relatively high ocean temperatures, indicating a positive Indian Ocean Dipole, created favourable conditions for tropical cyclogenesis. [11] A cyclonic circulation formed over ...
Extremely Severe Cyclonic Storm Biparjoy [a] (/ ˌ b ɪ p ər ˈ dʒ ɔɪ /) was a powerful and erratic tropical cyclone that formed over the east-central Arabian Sea.The third depression and the second cyclonic storm of the 2023 North Indian Ocean cyclone season, Biparjoy originated from a depression that was first noted by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) on 6 June, before ...
The 2024 North Indian Ocean cyclone season was an event in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation. It was above-average in terms of depressions and average in terms of formation of cyclonic storms. [1] Seasons have no official bounds, but cyclones tend to form between April and December, with the peak from May to Early November.
The most intense cyclone in the bay was the 1999 Odisha cyclone. [8] The Arabian Sea is a sea located in the northwest of the Indian Ocean. Tropical cyclones in the basin are abbreviated ARB by the India Meteorological Department (IMD). [4]
