Abstract
To assess the impact of a cyclone, it is pertinent to understand and compare the pre- and post-status of the affected region. This chapter elaborates on the pre- and post-status of different affected regions in India during different cyclonic occurrences. This chapter is an assessment and explanation of Cyclone YAAS (2021), Cyclone Phailin (2013), Cyclone Fani (2019), and Cyclone Amphan (2020). Authors have categorised the explanation broadly into four parts: The first section describes the climatic condition of the region at the time of cyclonic occurrence; the second part explains the pre-warning systems/steps taken by state and local government; the third section describes the impact of cyclonic disasters in terms of damages created; and the last portion of each study entails the coordination of government and local citizens in this connection.
