Extremely Severe Cyclonic Storm Faniwas the strongesttropical cycloneto strike theIndian StateofOdishasincePhailin in 2013. The second named storm and the first severe cyclonic storm of the 2019 North Indian Ocean Cyclonic Season, Fani originated from a tropical depression that formed west ofSumatrain the Indian Ocean on 26 April. Fani slowly drifted westward, finding itself in an area conductive for strengthening. However, as Fani moved northward, the system struggled to intensify, as moderate vertical wind shear hampered the storm's progress. After moving away from the wind shear, Fani began torapidly intensify, and became anextremely severe cyclonic stormon 30 April 2019, the first severe cyclonic storm of the season. Fani reached its peak intensity on 2 May, as a high-end extremely severe cyclonic storm, and the equivalent of a high-end Category 4 major hurricane. Fani weakened before makinglandfall, and its convective structure rapidly degraded thereafter. On the next day, Fani passed just north ofKolkataasa cyclonic storm. On 4 May, Fani weakened to a deep depression and moved into Bangladesh, before degenerating into a well-marked low later that day. Fani's remnants dissipated on the next day.

Meteorological History

The IMD began tracking a depression located west of Sumatraon 26 April, classifying it as BOB02. Later that day, the JTWC issued aTropical Cyclone Formation Alerton the system. Afterward the Storm moved Towards North avoiding the South East Coast of India. It made landfall in Northwest Bay of Bengal.Afterward, the storm slowly coalesced while moving northward and was upgraded to a deep depression.
At the same time, the JTWC began warning on the system, designating a Deep Depression.Six hours later, the IMD upgraded the system to a cyclonic storm and gave it the nameFani.
The system continued to intensify until 28April, after which it stagnated for over a day as convectionaroundthe storm's center waxed and waned.Fani resumed strengthening around 12:00 UTC, with the IMD upgrading it to a severe cyclonic storm.At that time, Fani began a period ofrapid intensificationas it was located within a very favorable environment withsea surface temperaturesof 30–31°C (86–88°F) and lowvertical wind shear. As a result, the JTWC upgraded Fani to aCategory 1-equivalent cyclone late on 29 April.On 30 April, Fani was upgraded to a very severe cyclonic storm by the IMD.The organization of the system continued to improve, with tight spiralbandingwrapping into a formativeeyefeature,resulting in Fani being upgraded to an extremely severe cyclonic storm by the IMD around 2 Maywhile the JTWC upgraded the storm to a Category3-equivalent cyclone hours later.Development proceeded more slowly over the following days, with little improvement evident in the system's satellite presentation. On 2 May, however, thecentral dense overcastbecame more symmetrical and the eye more distinct, and Fani was upgraded to a Category4-equivalent cyclone by the JTWC..Shortly after, Fani started another period of rapid intensification, attaining 1-minute sustained winds of 250km/h (155mph) just below Category 5-equivalent tropical cyclone intensity, according to the JTWC. Fanimade landfall nearPuri, Odisha with 3-minute sustained winds of 185km/h (115mph).Land interaction quickly degraded Fani's convective structure; and it weakened to a Category 1-equivalent tropical cyclone soon after landfall.Fani continued to weaken after landfall, weakening to a cyclonic storm later that day,before passing just north ofKolkata. On 4 May, Fani weakened to a deep depression and moved into Bangladesh,before degenerating into a well-marked low later on the same day.On 5 May, Fani's remnant low dissipated overBhutan.

The Journey to South Goa

  The Journey to South Goa We began this journey on the morning of 4th October 2019.  4th October 2019 (Friday) I got up at 4:30AM. I brushed my teeth and got ready. We kept the dental kit inside the bag. We wanted to start before 5AM because it takes around 11 hours to reach Goa by road from Bangalore by car if you go via the Chitradurga- Hubli highway. It was 10 minutes past 5 when the driver showed up at the our house. His name was Ramesh. He was suggested by one of my mother's friend Mr  Toms. He used to work in the hospitality industry. Then I was told to get into the front seat because my father wanted to sleep in the back seat because he had not slept enough the previous night. It was a white Toyota Etios. Then we started the car and drove towards the national highway. The road looked very quiet because it was 5 in the morning. It was drizzling in the morning and because of that it was a bit wet and cold. Then we drove quietly till 6AM. By then we had passed Peenya a

Covid-19 economic effects, China's rise, foreign policy and Indian Economy. Introduction I have been writing about my travel experiences all these days. But this one is different and my usual travel stories are not possible now due to covid-19. This post is about economics, diplomacy and covid 19. A different kind of a post. I will be discussing 4 topics in this post. They are economic effects of Covid on the world, China's rise as a global super power and its irresponsible  handling of covid, its aggressive foreign policy and then finally should India choose Capitalization over socialism.  Covid 19 Economic effects Fall in the GDP growth. This pandemic has just taught us how dependent we are on others and how dependent one country is on another country. The shutting down of industries and halting of farming activities have hit the global supply chain resulting in the deficiency of food supplies in many parts of the world. The recent US-China Trade war has resulted in the slowi

India's Foreign Policy

India's Foreign Policy Representative image only Introduction You would have already guessed what this blog is about. Yes, it is about India's Foreign Policy.  India is an emerging power and has the potential to become a superpower. Every country needs good allies to become a super power. India has a huge diplomatic outreach primarily due to its Diaspora. It has always taken a neutral stand during the cold war. India was heading the non aligned movement. Even though India was neutral, it was more dependent on the Soviet Union than the United States. Some of India's economic practices during the cold war era also resembled the policies of Soviet Government. India was very dependent on Soviet Union during the cold war era even though it was neutral.   India's Diplomatic Missions  India's diplomatic and foreign policy is handled by (MEA) Ministry of External Affairs.  Diplomatic missions of India India has diplomatic relations with almost all countries in the world.
