  1. (i) The low pressure conditions over north-western India, get transferred
    to the Bay of Bengal by early November.
    (ii) This shift is associated with the occurrence of cyclonic depressions which
    originate over the Andaman Sea.
    (iii) These cyclones generally cross the eastern coasts of India and cause
    heavy and widespread rains.
    (iv) These tropical cyclones are often very destructive.
    (v) The thickly populated deltas of the Godavari, the Krishna and the
    Kaveri are frequently struck by cyclones, which cause great damage to
    life and property.
    (vi) sometimes, these cyclones arrive at the coasts of Odisha, W. Bengal and
    Bangladesh. The bulk of rainfall of the Coromandel coast is derived
    from depression and cyclones.
