'Thane' kills 19; life in Cuddalore, Pondicherry stops, Cyclone Thane passed by the Tamil Nadu coast early on Friday, killing 19 and throwing life in Cuddalore and the neighbouring Puducherry completely out of gear.
Trees were uprooted, traffic signals ripped off their bases, shop signboards torn apart and tossed about. Broken glass from street lights, shards from window panes and other debris remained suspended on inundated roads. Mobile services experienced outage only to be restored much later in the day.

The cyclonic winds blowing at 140 km per hour did not stop till 9.00 am. They were at their strongest (150-160 km per hour) between 6 AM and 7.30 AM.
