Cyclone Hudhud

[Levina]

Actually, I didnt thought of posting it.. My aunty with her family was in Vizag and I was closely watching the cyclone news whole day and posting only some threads.. Do you know that Hud Hud is the national bird of Israel.. Its all a Zionist conspiracy

enhh?? really??
I didnt know about the Israeli connection to this cyclone.

Yup, our journos picked it up.. BTW its a miracle that we kept the causalities under 10.. Hats off to those rescue teams.. We are becoming an experts in rescue and relief operations..

Right!
Kudos to those in the rescue teams!!
But I also read how ppl instead of being cautious were out on the streets and celebrating which I think was a very stupid thing to do.
I think more awareness among the ppl would help further in the future.

Errrr
Should you not be thankful??

I understand it gets a lil upsetting when an anticipated holiday goes for a six.

But on a second thought you guys are lucky that you didn't have to face it.

Chalo thank god I've some company

but why would hudhud sound funny??
I thought it was the noise that wind makes when it makes a landfall.

and some more info................


Last year, Phailin, the name for a massive cyclone which battered India's south-eastern coast and led to the evacuation of more than 500,000 people, was provided by Thailand. Some of the Indian names in the queue are the more prosaic Megh (Cloud), Sagar (Ocean) and Vayu (Wind).
Next time a cyclone hits the region, it's Pakistan's turn to give it a name.
The names will not dry up anytime soon. Dr Mahapatra says Hudhud is possibly the 34th name of the list, which means there are 30 more in the queue. The panel of cyclone experts meets every year, and they will be replenishing the list whenever the need arises.
It's not that the list of 64 names has been without controversy
Cyclone Mahasen, which hit in 2013 and was named by Sri Lanka, was changed to Viyaru after protests by nationalists and officials in Sri Lanka. They said Mahasen was a king who had brought peace and prosperity to the island, and it was wrong to name a calamity after him.

BBC News - How Cyclone Hudhud got its name


you dont have to embarrass me now

I dont believe you though...if you had read it then you would 've posted it too.
I DONT believe YOU!!!

I knew its name meaning and major details of how and who name it but there were things which I was also not aware of like when two cyclone hit in close timing then what? Thank you.

Right!

Yes people were in open and putting others life in danger. That's what worried me more than the cyclone. We can predict the cyclone but not the cyclone.

Videos can be found on video sharing sites easily but I will advise all Indian and friendly posters to avoid posting the videos taken inside the naval base. Thank you.
