Super Cyclonic Storm Nana(08A) was the strongest storm of this season. The IMD got hit by a rock from space and kill all of the IMD workers on Feb. 28. A new TCWC was the Bane-India cyclonic warning center(BICWC). Karen Mark was tracking Nana for weeks, and BICWC asked the IMD to share IMD's scale, so they took it and used it on Feb. 27-December 30. Toads Nicholas was giving cyclone warnings and watches for the whole Indian subcontinent.
