November 9, 2019: 07 UTC - The tropical cyclone Bulbul will impact the shores of West Bengal and Bangladesh late in the day and into the night. Bulbul will still be a strong storm at the moment of impact despite an expected weakening.
Impact at the end of the day or this night
Storm tide a deadly phenomenon
The storm tide is less known to the general public. However, it is the most dangerous and deadly phenomenon of the cyclone. At the beginning of the year Mozambique was hit hard by this phenomenon during the cyclone Idai. Recall also that Bangladesh experienced a catastrophic storm surge in 1970 that caused one of the worst cyclone-related catastrophes in history.
