November 16, 2018

In India, severe cyclone storm 'Gaja' has wreaked large scale damage killing eleven people in Tamil Nadu state.   

According to the Indian media, over eighty thousand people were evacuated from low lying areas and sheltered at over four hundred and seventy relief centers in six districts of the southern state. Torrential rains have caused water logging and threatened landslides in the region.

The storm is predicted to move westwards and gradually weaken before heading into the Arabian Sea.
