Cyclone Phailin approaching India's Eastern Coast is supposed to be largest intensity experience by the country. The minimum required disaster preparedness is done, within the states this is not clear about the safety beyond the settlements abutting the coast. The real time tracking of the cyclone gives seriousness of the disaster, which requires ground presence of the teams. Hope the help of defense in such cases are ready on the ground. We are yet to get the live images when its just 150 km sway from the coast.
The image shows the path of the cyclone, majority of them affecting the high population area. The citizens might be now advised to stay indoors into an safe structure. The disaster shelters should be used along with closing all the door and windows, tightned the loose items, put cars and vechicles in locked garrages, do not use electricity or electronic device during the course of cyclone. Store only emergency items, make your selves for the emergency lights, torches, bag carrying only essentials. Take care of old, children and women, do not allow yourself near to the poles, trees and dangerous structures. Evacuate the place if it is abutting the coast, and help administration only after cylone passes from your area. Heavy rains associated with cyclone may also cause flooding and people are advised to restrict their travel between the cities and water logged areas. We hope the state and their people would have enough awareness about the seriousness, but do not panic. This would also pass.....
