When the weather relented, Paradip remained cut off from the world until Monday, when bulldozers cleared the road of trees and debris, and army helicopters began dropping parcels of rice to stranded villagers.

PARADIP, Nov 17 — Howling winds which raced through the industrial township of Paradip on the night of October 29 have thankfully spared the core infrastructure of almost all the industrial units here.
Officials at the Paradip Port Trust were more forthcoming with their views, perhaps because of the fact that they belong to a government organisation.
According to the Chairman of the Paradip Port Trust, Mr S.K. Mohapatra, the port had taken adequate preventive measures prior to the cyclone to save the core infrastructure like the channel, harbour, turning circle, berth and equipment from obstruction and damage.

 Sea level during storm surges as seen in tide-gauge records along the east coast of India
The double minimum is possibly the result of details in meteorological forcing, and simulating such intricate variations in sea level is indeed a challenge to skills of two types: recording the meteorological fields and simulating the sea level surges using a numerical model.
As in Event 1, the effect of the surge is not restricted to Paradip, where it peaked on 8 August; it peaked on 16 August at Vishakhapatnam and on 18 August at Chennai.
Though this storm was the weakest of the three, the peak surge at Paradip occurred at the time of high hide, resulting in a higher water level than Event 2; a difference of just 6 h in the timing of the surge implied a sea level higher by about 1.5 m.
