• TC ROANU formed over the south-western Bay of Bengal, near the south-eastern coasts of India, on 18 May. It then started moving in parallel with the coast of eastern India. On 20 May at 6.00 UTC, its centre was located approx. 120 km south of Ganjam district (Odisha state, India) and it had max. sustained wind speed of 93 km/h. • Over the next 48 h, it is forecast to continue strengthening as it moves towards the north-east coast of India. It may reach Chittagong division (Bangladesh) on 21 May with max. sustained winds of 100- 130 km/h. Heavy rain, strong winds and storm surge are expected to affect the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha, as well as southern Bangladesh and western Myanmar/Burma. A storm surge in the order of 1.6- 1.8 m on the coastal area south of the city of Chittagong (Bangladesh) is expected for 21 May morning (UTC). • TC Roanu previously affected Sri Lanka, bringing heavy rain and causing widespread damage and casualties. National authorities reported over 427 900 people affected, 64 dead, 29 injured, 131 missing, over 319 500 evacuated and over 3 800 homes damaged, as of 20 May. Local media also reported flooding in Chennai (Tamil Nadu state, India), due to heavy rain. • TC in 2015 in this area: Between 30 July and 1 August 2015, Cyclone “KOMEN” affected southern Bangladesh and western Myanmar/Burma killing at least 48 people and resulting in the displacement of more than 400 000 people Sources: GDACS, JTWC, RMSC, IMD, Local Media Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) – ECHO Daily Map | 20/05/2016 India, Bangladesh, Myanmar/Burma– Tropical Cyclone ROANU SITUATION 20 May, 6.00 UTC 93 km/h sust. winds 18 May 18.00 UTC 83 km/h sust. winds 20 May 0.00 UTC 83 km/h sust. winds 18 May 6.00 UTC 74 km/h sust. winds 20 May 18.00 UTC 111 km/h sust. winds 21 May 6.00 UTC 102 km/h sust. winds Indian Ocean Bay of Bengal Laccadive Sea ACCUM.
