2012 North Indian Ocean cyclone season
The 2012 North Indian Ocean cyclone season was an active tropical cyclone season that significantly impacted India, characterized by the formation of several cyclonic disturbances across the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. Officially, the season commenced on April 1 and concluded on December 31, 2012, with the India Meteorological Department (IMD) reporting a total of six named storms, of which three intensified into cyclones. Notable systems included Cyclone Nilofar, which brought heavy rains and flooding to parts of Western India, and Cyclone Phethai, which affected coastal areas in Tamil Nadu. The season was marked by a heightened focus on preparedness and response measures due to the potential for widespread agricultural and infrastructural damage.
