No one seems to be too bothered here and rather have dick measuring contests of who's less well off as usual.. This cyclone has the potential to bring massive damage.. Hope innocent lives will be spared and not too much devastation occur

Hope people get through this without loss of life, but why would anybody on a Pakistani forum be worried about a cyclone on India-Bangladesh territories?

I was talking about this sub section specifically, They are arguing about who produces more rice while a mega storm is at their door step and not a word about it

Bangladesh raises danger signal as Cyclone Amphan intensifies

Bangladesh has issued danger signal No. 7 for Mongla and Payra ports and No. 6 for Chattogram and Cox's Bazar as Cyclone Amphan continued to gain strength.

The storm, which has turned into a 'very severe' cyclone as it moves northwards over the west Bay of Bengal, was centred about 1,075 km south-southwest of Chattogram port at 3 pm Monday, according to the Met Office.

It is likely to move in a northerly direction and then recurve north-northeastwards before cutting its path through the Bangladesh coast between Khulna and Chattogram between Tuesday night and Wednesday evening, said Senior Meteorologist MD Bazlur Rashid.


The maximum sustained wind speed within 85 km of the cyclone centre is about 210 kph, rising to 220 kph in gusts or squalls. The sea will remain very high near the cyclone centre.

The low-lying areas of the country’s coastal districts may experience flooding from tidal waves 4 to 5 feet higher than normal and heavy rainfall with winds packing speeds of up to 160 kph during Cyclone Amphan, the Met Office warned.

All fishing boats and trawlers over the north Bay and deep sea have been advised to take shelter immediately and remain there until further notice.


------
12,078 storm shelters readied. More than 5.2 million people on the coastal areas will be evacuated by tomorrow evening.

Just another routine storm in the season of westerlies.

I hope the impact and loss of life is minimal, I have relatives in the vicinity

Hopefully the government has prepared the storm shelters and the disaster relief services are ready.
