Were the Arab-Persian coasts known for extreme cyclone activity before?
Hearing about the weather back in Europe, sometimes I hardly recognize what I know... How is the weather in France now, by the way?
dunno about france, but we've got unseasonably lovely high 70s/low 80s and breezy weather here in california.
(apologies to all for the lack of metric, but the american public school system abandoned it after 1st grade, and all i ended up learning was that my pinkie finger was about a centimeter wide).
This cyclone is unprecedented. First in known history.
