SaveTheHills (STH) storm watch - Cyclone LAILA - the first cyclone of 2010 in the Bay of Bengal

One of the roles of STH during this period is to watch weather developments in the Bay of Bengal with an aim to forewarn the communities of any adverse weather phenomenon (last year we tracked Cyclone AILA and sent out email/SMS alerts)
In so doing we rely on several websites to obtain satellite images, then we do consult experienced meteorologists about the prognosis prior to sending out the email/SMS alerts.
Placed above are satellite images of Cyclone LAILA as it developed in the south east Bay on 18ay2010.
