The Cyclone

Two nights ago, the 16th of November 2007 a huge hurricane broke out over Bangladesh! I didn't know that it was coming. So when it hit I thought that there were bombs exploding. This was because the cyclone blew anything practically that was loose and on the ground and would bee thrown all over the place and some hit my windows.Then it didn't seem bad at all! but the next morning when i woke up, one big tree had fallen over another tree and had pulled all the rotes out of the ground and now both of the trees were on our house. But an hour later our gardener had cut the tree into small peaces and been pulled out out of the reach of the house. We had no power for the rest of the day. And still this was nothing at all compared of what had happened in the southern part of Bangladesh down in Shundarbans and Bandarbans! There hole cities had been destroyed and more than 3,500 people were found dead. Almost everyone in that aria lost their homes. Bangladesh only have 5 helicopters to try to save around 2,000,000 people. NOT POSSIBLE! Luckily many countries have taken action and America for example sent around 85 helicopters here to help.


The picture above shows a picture that was taken when the cyclone hit . it shows a palm tree. And this picture was found here.
