Tauktae till now:
Several cities like Mumbai have faced waterlogging, heavy storms, and heavy rainfall due to the Tauktae hitting the coasts. The vaccination program was also halted in several parts of western India, and patients were shifted to better hospitals to guarantee health safety amidst the storm.
According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), the eye of the cyclone hit the Saurashtra region of the Gujarat coast, between Diu and Una. The major destruction was caused on the evening of May 17 and the cyclone started developing into depression all over again, after that. It still hit Amreli in a devastating form on May 18.
The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and the IMD are in favor of the notion that the cyclone will be over by May 18 and the country will be free again with only one disaster to fight, the second wave of the COVID.
