Cyclonic storm “Thane” hits Tamil Nadu coast near Puducherry



The cyclonic storm “Thane” has crossed the Tamil Nadu shore hitting landmass between Cuddalore and Puducherry Friday morning. 

The storm claimed two lives and left a trail of destruction in union territory of Pudducherry.



The two causalities were due to house collapse. A few houses in the coastal areas collapsed and a several others damaged under very strong winds with a speed of about 140 kmph.

Puducherians woke up to see their historic place virtually turned into a ghost town, with a large number of trees, high mast lamps, traffic signals and transformers uprooted across the roads.
