  • Tropical Cyclone Kesiny was the first recorded tropical cyclone – the equivalent of a minimal hurricane – to make landfall in the month of May in the south-west Indian Ocean. The final named storm of the busy 2001–02 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season, Kesiny formed on May 2 from a trough near the equator. Its formation was the result of an increase in the Madden–Julian oscillation, which also contributed to a twin storm in the north Indian Ocean that hit Oman, and another set of storms in northeast and southeast Indian Ocean. Kesiny initially moved to the southeast, but later turned to the southwest due to a strengthening ridge. On May 6, it intensified into a tropical cyclone, but later weakened and was not expected to re-strengthen. However, Kesiny developed an eye and re-intensified into a tropical cyclone on May 9, reaching peak winds of 130 km/h (81 mph) before striking Madagascar about 60 km (37 mi) southeast of Antsiranana. It weakened while crossing the country, and after turning to the south it struck the country again before dissipating on May 11. Across Madagascar, Cyclone Kesiny dropped heavy rainfall, reaching 891 mm (35.1 in) in three days at Toamasina, the second largest city in the country. The rains caused mudslides and flooding in the eastern portion of the country, wrecking the rice and maize crops and leaving 5,000 people homeless. At least 33 bridges were destroyed, and many roads were damaged. A total of 33 people were killed, and 1,200 people were injured. The cyclone struck in the midst of a political crisis, in which the top two candidates of the Malagasy presidential election in 2001 declared themselves the winner; the incumbent, who lost, declared Toamasina as the capital city, and the political instability disrupted relief efforts.

  • 热带气旋可辛尼是2002年5月西南印度洋第一场强度达到热带气旋标准——相当于飓风的最低标准——并实现登陆的风暴,也是活跃程度相当高的2001-2002年西南印度洋热带气旋季期间最后一场获得命名的风暴,源于5月2日赤道附近的一条低压槽,该低压槽经马登-朱利安振荡增强,已经催生出另外3场风暴。系统起初向东南移动,之后因受逐渐增强的高压脊影响转向西南。5月6日,可辛尼强化成热带气旋,之后又出现减弱,气象部门预计系统不会再度增强。但到了5月9日,可辛尼已发展出风眼并重新增强至热带气旋标准,达到风力时速130公里的最高强度后从安齐拉纳纳东南方向约60公里吹袭马达加斯加。可辛尼在穿越马达加斯加期间逐渐减弱,之后转向南下再度袭击该国,然后在5月11日逐渐消散。 马达加斯加普降暴雨,第2大城市图阿马西纳在3天时间内的总计降雨量达891毫米。该国东部因暴雨引发多场泥石流和洪灾,水稻和玉米作物受到破坏,约5000人无家可归。全国至少33座桥梁被毁,许多道路受损,还有33人遇难,1200人受伤。气旋吹袭之时,马达加斯加正陷入政治危机,该国2001年总统大选的两大候选人都宣称自己获胜,在选举中落败的在任总统宣布迁都图阿马西纳,动荡的政治环境对救灾工作造成不利影响。 (zh)
