Hello FM ties up with INCOIS for weather forecast service
MUMBAI: Hello FM has tied up with 'Indian National Center for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS)' to give information about the sea conditions every day on their radio channel.
The information will include the height of the wave, direction and speed of the wind, ocean current, potential fish finding zones and also gives early warnings on depression on the sea, cyclones and tsunami alerts.
Hello 106.4FM will air this information two to three times a day across their radio stations in Chennai, Tuticorin, Tirunelveli and the to be launched station in Puducherry. This information will be available 15 to 20 km into the sea so that it can prove to be highly beneficial for the fishermen who are out into the sea to know about the weather conditions.
Says Hello FM's marketing head Charles,"This is an initiative taken by Hello FM to help the fishermen who mostly are the victims of any disturbances in the ocean. Through this information we can reach them and keep them aware of the weather conditions so that they can be safe while venturing into the sea. We are glad to join hands with INCOIS for the betterment of the society."
