Cyclones In Bangladesh

The cyclone is a severe calamity. It visits Bangladesh almost every year. It lasts for a short time but is more terrible than the flood. It comes by surprise and passes over very quickly. The whole area over which it passes are affected very badly. The cyclone blows very hard in a circular motion and moves round the center. It passes with a great fury and changes its motion gradually or suddenly. 

The low depression in the Bay of Bengal is the cause of cyclones in Bangladesh. This may take place far away from the main land. But it approaches the main land at a great speed and lashes the the trees, houses and every thing in it's way.

Before the cyclone begins, there appear patches of clouds together with gusty winds. As the cyclone approaches clouds pass very swiftly in the sky. The wind becomes gradually harder and grows more and more forceful and violent. When the cyclone actually appears, the whole sky looks like a dark sheet of clouds. The stormy wind passes very speedily with a deafening sound. It rains in torrents. Roofs of houses are blown away. Trees of all sizes are uprooted, boat, launches and ships capsize. These sink down with goods and passengers. The cyclone is a horror to all. It causes great loss of life and property.
