Cyclone Murasu caused extensive damage in Andhra Pradesh’s Prakasam district, though no casualties were reported. Severe winds and heavy rainfall uprooted hundreds of trees, damaged electricity poles and disrupted mobile networks, and several livestock were found dead. Authorities moved affected residents to relief shelters, including 137 pregnant women. The India Meteorological Department said the storm, currently over the south‑coastal part of the state, is expected to weaken gradually as it moves north‑northwestward and should weaken into a deep depression by midnight, prompting a heavy‑rainfall alert.
