Cyclone Michaung looks ferocious in satellite images from space

India Today  

As Cyclone Michaung barrels into the southeastern coast of India, satellite images from INSAT-3DR's rapid scan have captured the storm's massive scale and intensity. The Indian National Satellite System's advanced meteorological satellite, INSAT-3DR, has been instrumental in monitoring the cyclone, providing vital data to forecasters and disaster management authorities. The latest images reveal the cyclone's eye wall and the dense spiral bands of thunderstorms surrounding it, indicating the system's strength as it made its approach towards land. With wind speeds reaching up to 100 kilometers per hour and even higher gusts, the cyclone has intensified into a severe storm, unleashing heavy rains, strong winds, and potential flash floods across the coastal regions of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
