What is the impact of the tropical cyclones in the summer months?
- Tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating
storm system with low pressure centre and spiral arrangement of thunderstorms
resulting in heavy rainfall.
- Tropical cyclones in summer: The three-fourth of tropical cyclones originate in Bay of Bengal and rest in Arabian
Sea.
- Most of the storms of Bay of
Bengal move towards north or north-west and take a curve towards north-east and
strike Bangladesh
and the Arakan Coast of Myanmar. These are quite severe and cause damage to
life and property.
- Arabian Sea born storms are
formed in May and move away from Indian coast in north western direction and dissipate
in sea.
