Title

Description
In December 24, 1992 Tropical Cyclone 12A struck southern Bari region,bringing beneficial rainfall to the normally arid areas. This was the fourth cyclone in the Arabian Sea and the twelfth in the North Indian Ocean in 1992. The tropical disturbance that became TC12A first formed in the Maldives near the equatorial trough. The peak intensity reached by this cyclone was 50 kt (26 m/s) just prior to landfall. TC12A weakened rapidly after making landfall in Somalia, bringing much needed rain to a dry country. It dissipated over land. Bari region was the most affected region by this storm.
