series of storms and the resulting flooding. The storms have had a
devastating effect on the state of Orissa, where millions of people have
been rendered homeless and thousands of people have died. Many of the
survivors have gone without much/any food or drinking water for the past
four days. While relief and help has started coming in, it will take months
to rebuild the infrastructure and rehabilitate the homeless. Please visit
the following two web sites to get an idea of the extent of damage and the
kind of help required:

The cyclone bearing winds up to 155 mph hit along 300 miles of coastline in the states of Orissa and West Bengal at midday today.

Even when the full-blown storm was still several miles offshore, powerful winds flattened simple mud huts, uprooted trees and cut off communications to the worst-hit areas.]]> Typhoon fred https://www.viexpo.com/typhoon/archive-through-november-06-1999/ https://www.viexpo.com/typhoon/read-typhoon-bart-messages/ Thu, 23 Sep 1999 15:40:00 +0000
