Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala will witness heavy to very heavy rainfalls in the next five days due to the intensification of southwest monsoon in the state, according to Indian Meteorological Department (IMD).

The weather department has announced an orange alert for Kannur and Kasargod districts from Monday to Wednesday. An orange alert indicates very heavy rainfall ranging from 115.6 mm to 204.4 mm in a period of 24 hours.

The IMD, however, predicted that there will be extremely high rainfalls in the Kozhikode district on Wednesday, and rainfall above 204.4 mm is expected in the district.

The Kerala Disaster Management Authority (KSDMA) has asked the public to be extremely cautious as there are possibilities of flash floods and landslides.

People living near coastal areas are advised by KSDMA to be prepared to shift to relief camps if the rain intensifies and the situation turns worse.

Fishermen are also directed not to venture into the sea in Kerala, Karnataka, and Lakshadweep till Wednesday.
