The coastal areas are more vulnerable to cyclones because they are situated close to the sea.
Cyclones are huge revolving storms that develop over warm seas near the equator. These thunderstorms develop from the massive amount of moisture and heat of the rising warm air from the sea. These storms stir up the sea and create deadly waves and surges called storm surges. The water and rain from these storm surges move towards the inland areas with great power and flood the low-lying coastal areas.
