- The first and major effect comes from the damaging winds. Flying debris also causes damage to trees, habitats, and can affect sewerage and sanitation systems.
- The sea level rises 10-20 feet or more. The surge of water that can come ashore with a storm causes an incredible amount of damage.
- Once cyclones make landfall, they often degenerate into a rain depression, which can bring flooding rains to a region. Not all cyclones bring heavy rain.
- Cyclonic winds can cause erosion, as well as defoliation of forests.
