India NOW! Tropical Cyclone Dana: 3.6 Million Affected in Odisha and West Bengal!
Tropical Cyclone Dana hit the eastern coast of India, bringing gale-force winds with gusts up to seventy-five miles per hour and torrential rains. According to the India Meteorological Department, the cyclone made landfall on Friday, October 25, in the state of Odisha.
Nearly three million six hundred thousand people across fourteen districts in Odisha were affected, with the worst damage in the districts of Kendrapara, Bhadrak, Balasore, Jajpur, and Mayurbhanj. Schools were closed in the affected regions, and over two hundred trains were canceled.
In Balasore district, water levels in the Budhabalang River rose above warning marks, submerging more than twenty villages.
To prevent loss of life, Odisha authorities preemptively evacuated around eight hundred nine thousand people, placing them in over six thousand relief centers.
Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi reported no fatalities so far, saying the state has successfully carried out its “zero-casualty mission.”
However, in the neighboring state of West Bengal, four people lost their lives due to the cyclone. Heavy rains in the state capital, Kolkata, flooded agricultural lands, damaging crops like rice and potatoes in the districts of Hooghly, Bankura, Jhargram, Purba, and Paschim Medinipur.
The cyclone caused extensive damage in Odisha and West Bengal, disrupting infrastructure, snapping power lines, and uprooting trees.
In recent years, disasters have grown in scale and duration, attributed to a mix of the region’s hydrological and climatic conditions, as well as a lack of effective river management. Yet, the main driver behind the rising frequency and intensity of floods is the increasing atmospheric humidity, linked to the abnormal warming of the ocean.
Scientists have already developed technology capable of effectively reducing atmospheric humidity and clearing oceans of microplastics, restoring their natural role as the planet’s cooling system. These measures could help lessen the impact of extreme weather events like heavy rains, storms, and hurricanes.
Additionally, this technology could provide an unlimited supply of clean water to those in need. It sounds like science fiction, but it’s entirely achievable on a global scale in the near future — if humanity has the resolve to make it happen.
