The NCM stated that tropical events often undergo many rapid and sudden changes, and that it will update on any developments on the situation.

The authority also said that the accuracy of information regarding the intensity of the situation and its path will increase after it develops.

There are two potential tracks for the expected tropical depression — moving west toward the central Arabian Sea and then towards the central Oman coasts or moving west-southwest toward the central Arabian Sea and then towards Socotra.
