CYCLONE IN BANGLADESH

CYCLONE IN BANGLADESH

Bangladesh is punished by cyclones almost every year. The reason in its geographical location on the Bay of Bengal. So the depressions formed on the bay travel upward and hit the coastal areas of Bangladesh.

First the depression is formed on the sea. The sun shines hotly on the sea. The air of a particular area lightens up. The colder wind from the surrounding area rushes to occupy this vacant space. The low pressure is formed. The depression gathers force and spirits forward towards northeast. The wind blows strongly. Thunder and lightning accompany the gales. The waves of the sea become unruly. The cyclone is formed land it hits the land maliciously.
A severe cyclone blew Chittagong and adjacent areas on April 29, 1991. It was the strongest storm, we have ever witnessed. There was intolerable heat for a few days. The sky was overcast and gloomy. The trees looked contemplative. It was a Monday. By 9 o’clock at night gusty winds began to blow. Thundering sounds started booming. The big trees shook violently and they looked so supple. By twelve midnight the cyclone began to rage demonically. It continued like that for four hours. Only by 9 the following morning the cyclone completely subsided.
The aftermath of cyclone 91 was massive. Trees and houses were blown away like peanut shells. Many boats were blown inside the land at Chi8ttagong. The loss of cattle and the damage to property were huge. Almost 5,00,000 people were killed.

the cyclone shelters should be erected on the coastal area. The cyclone signalling system also should be modernized.
