Weather tracker: Tropical Cyclone Mitchell hits Western Australia
AI Summary
Tropical Cyclone Mitchell impacted Western Australia last week, developing from a tropical low and intensifying into a category three storm fueled by warm waters. Coastal regions experienced destructive winds, high tides, and heavy rainfall before Mitchell weakened upon landfall. Cyclone Genzani struck Madagascar's east coast on Tuesday, causing major flooding, damaging buildings, and resulting in casualties and displacement; it is the second cyclone to hit Madagascar this year. Meanwhile, a blocked weather pattern in Europe led to a very wet start to the year in the west and southwest, and dry, cold conditions in Scandinavia, the Baltics, and eastern Europe. Two cold snaps in January brought extreme temperatures as low as -42.8C in Finland, disrupting travel and driving record electricity use.
