Abstract

The last week of September and the first week of October 1966 were characterised by the formation movement of intense tropical disturbances over the Indian Ocean area in both the hemispheres. An unmterruped sequence of satellite data for a storms season was for the first time available to Indian Meteorologists through the APT subsystem Satellite data combined with ships observations showed the simultaneous existence of two cyclonic disturbances in the Bay of Bengal. Absence of well defined cloud bands and striations in some of these storms and rapid extension of clouds towards northeast when storms recurve under influence of upper westerly through indicated in satellite pictures are discussed.
