The Bay of Bengal witnessed two cyclones within a week, with Cyclone Arnab followed by Cyclone Murasu in late October 2026.

But why did two storms develop so close together?

October and November are particularly active months for cyclones in the Bay of Bengal, as the retreating monsoon creates favourable conditions for storm formation.

However, one cyclone does not necessarily cause another. Each storm develops under its own atmospheric conditions.
