The season has no official bounds but cyclones tend to form between April and December.

These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northern Indian Ocean.

An average of five tropical cyclones form in the North Indian Ocean every season with peaks in May and November.

On 13 May, the cyclone made landfall near Ongole in Andhra Pradesh and dissipated rapidly by the same day.

In Peddaganjam and Kovuur, storm surges were up to 12 ft, which led to coastal flooding in those areas.
