Cyclone Freddy in Madagascar
Tropical Cyclone Freddy made landfall on the eastern coast of Madagascar north of the town of Mananjary on February 21 2023, weeks after storm Cheneso smashed into the northeastern part of the country bringing in heavy winds and triggering downpours that caused extensive flooding, killing at least 33 people and forcing tens of thousands of people from their homes.
The storm was slightly weakened upon arrival with wind gusts exceeding 130km/h (81mph),
Officials reported that 7,000 people had been pre-emptively evacuated from the coastal region directly in the cyclone's path, and that waves could reach over 8m (26ft).
