Muscat: The tropical cyclone Vayu, which formed over the Arabian Sea, has weakened and turned into a storm, the Oman Meteorological Department said on Sunday.


The weather expert at the Oman Met Office said, “The latest observations show that the cyclone "Vayu" markdowns to a tropical storm and moves west/northwestward in the last hours. According to the numerical weather prediction, it is predicted that Vayu will track north/northeastward during the next 12 hours. ”
