KEY POINTS
· Cyclone Tauktae swelled into an extremely severe cyclonic storm, dumping enormous volumes of water all along the west coast, and caused loss of life in Kerala, Karnataka, Goa, Maharashtra and Gujarat, before weakening overland.
· This year’s pre-monsoon season presented a double jeopardy, caught as they were between a fast-spreading virus variant and an unrelenting storm.
· The twin crises have, however, strained the capacities of multiple States, especially the coastal ones.
· The India Meteorological Department (IMD) launched an impact-based cyclone warning system designed to reduce economic losses by focusing on districts and specific locations.
· Together with ground mapping of vulnerabilities, this is a promising approach to avoid loss of life and destruction of property.
· The importance of precise early warnings cannot be overemphasised, considering that the Arabian Sea has emerged as a major source of severe cyclones.
· Their intensity is aggravated by long-term rise in sea surface temperatures linked to pollution over South Asia and its neighbourhood.
· Build sturdy homes of suitable design, create adequate storm shelters, provide accurate early warnings, and ensure financial protection against calamities through insurance for property and assets.
