  "account": "Cyclone Arnab, a deep depression over the east-central Bay of Bengal, intensified into a storm and is now expected to make landfall in Andhra Pradesh on October 28. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicts the storm will move west-northwestwards and strengthen further into a severe cyclonic storm by October 27. The Andhra Pradesh government has issued advisories, cancelled leave for employees in six vulnerable districts, and closed schools and Anganwadi centres to prepare for the approaching cyclone. Odisha, while expecting the cyclone to make landfall on its coast, is also taking precautionary measures in six districts, including the closure of schools and colleges. Cyclone Arnab is forecast to bring sustained wind speeds of 115-125 kmph with gusts reaching 140 kmph upon landfall.",
  "summary": "Cyclone Arnab is expected to intensify into a severe cyclonic storm before making landfall along the Andhra Pradesh coast on October 28. Odisha has deployed eight ministers to oversee preparedness, shut educational institutions in six vulnerable districts.",
