Yes, since its formation is close to land, it wont be a high category Cyclone. It will still bring too much rain in its path

Some are saying it could reach VSCS level as well. So much confusion in weather community. All factors are definitely favouring a very strong cyclone except the proximity to land

The cyclone formation in Bay of Bengal in summer fuels northwesterly winds to blow across vast swathes of india causing rise in day temperature, consequently heatwave conditions. The extent of the reach of heat wave depends upon cyclone positioning and strength

Many models are now becoming consistent with a forecast of direct landfall over West Bengal. Intensity of Cyclone also seems high despite less time to strengthen. This is due to abnormally high sea surface temperatures
