#CycloneYaas: What is Landfall? How ‘Very Severe Cyclonic Storm’ Could Impact Coastal Parts During Landfall?

weather.com/en-IN/india/ne…

(📸: TOI Kolkata, BCCL)
What is #landfall?

A landfall, in simple words, is the storm moving over the land after its intensification in the ocean (heat source). Therefore, a cyclone is said to make landfall when the centre of the storm (eye) moves across the coast. (Photo: Nalam Kanaka/BCCL)
The landfall usually brings with it high-speed winds, severe storm surge and torrential downpour, all of which can have a severe impact on the region. The storm usually weakens rapidly after landfall as the ocean heat and moisture that fuels the storm are no longer available. (Photo: SUBHRAJIT CHANDRA/BCCL)
