Meteorologists say that the Bay of Bengal is the origin of the world's deadliest cyclones. In the last 200 years, cyclones in the Bay of Bengal have killed millions of people. The triangular shape and geographical location of the Bay of Bengal is the reason for the formation of cyclones. But recently there is more storm going over Bengal? The discussion has started with the possibility of Cyclone Dana making landfall after a deep depression including 'Remal' last May and a storm in July. What about the weather department? What is Alipur Meteorological Department?

Durga Puja passed in rain and rain. Monsoon in Bengal is not regular. The low pressure rain water is not drying up, but the cyclone is coming. According to meteorologists, a deep depression is forming in the Bay of Bengal on Tuesday. It may turn into a cyclone and hit the coast of Odisha and Bengal on Wednesday. Cyclone that Qatar named 'Dana'. Meaning, free or freedom. The wind office has predicted storm speeds of 100 to 120 kilometers per hour. Besides Bengal, alert has been issued for Odisha and Tamil Nadu. The Meteorological Department says that the interval of disasters has reduced due to the formation of low pressure, but the cyclone is 'regular'. That is, the type of cyclone has not changed. HR Biswas of the Alipore Meteorological Department said, "There is no evidence that there has been any change in the number and timing of cyclones in the last 100 years of average records." The average number of cyclones in the region is similar. He said that the average of the last 100 years shows that the 'real time' of cyclone formation is mainly the last three months of the year. Also March to May – one to two cyclones occur during this quarter. As in the current year, 'Remal' has happened.

Cyclone Remal hit the coast of West Bengal and Bangladesh last May. Due to its influence, heavy rains occurred in Kolkata, Howrah and Hooghly. At the time of 'landfall' on the ground, the speed of 'Remal' was 110-120 km per hour. In some parts of Kolkata, trees fell and roads were blocked due to strong winds. Districts also suffered minor damage. But it is not that big. According to the weather office, there is usually a threat of cyclone twice a year. Apart from this low pressure rains have to suffer. But no irregularity is observed as cyclone. Looking at this year's report, it can be seen that there have been two cyclones so far. From May 24th to 28th, the power of Cyclone Remal was seen in the Bay of Bengal. After that came 'Asna' in August. The cyclone did not affect Bengal. But public life in Gujarat has been disrupted. A deep depression over the Arabian Sea off the Gujarat coast turned into a cyclonic storm affecting places like Rajkot, Dwarka, Baroda, Kutch and Jamnagar. Heavy rains wreak havoc in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's state. About 40 people died. Apart from this, there was rain in the state on July 19-20 under the influence of a low pressure created in the Bay of Bengal. A deep depression formed in August. It caused heavy rains in neighboring states including Jharkhand. And so far the last depression has affected Bengal from August 31 to October 2. The same trend was observed in 2022 and '23. So there is no effect in thinking that the cyclone has increased. This is what HR Biswas of Alipur Meteorological Department says after looking at the average of the last few years.
