The Indian National Center for Oceanography and Research (INCOIS) has issued a red alert along the coasts of Kerala and south Tamil Nadu for the swell surge phenomenon, advising fishermen and coastal dwellers to be careful as there is a possibility of sea erosion.

It advised fishermen to keep fishing vessels (boats, boats, etc.) safely moored in the harbour and keep a safe distance between boats to avoid the risk of collision. It also said that the safety of fishing equipment should be ensured.

It said that people should avoid trips to the beach and activities at sea completely during the swell surge phenomenon.
