Tropical cyclones – also known as hurricanes, typhoons or storms, depending on their location and intensity – are among the world's most destructive and costly climate disasters.

As the year's deadliest typhoon sweeps into Vietnam after wreaking havoc in the Philippines earlier this week, scientists warn such extreme events can only become more frequent as global temperatures rise.

With another deadly cyclone right on its doorstep, India's Southern states are gearing up for an incoming harsh weather. Cyclone Montha’s Landfall finally began on the evening of October 28, leading netizens to share all kinds of spine-chilling videos.
