Answer 2

Kolkata is the city that experienced the highest wind speed in India.

• Kolkata experienced 98 km/hr. wind speed during cyclone Hud Hud.
• The cyclonic trends develop into a gust of wind causing damage of trees and public property to a greater extent.
• On the occurrence of Hud Hud, the life at Kolkata was derailed as most of the transport system was badly affected.
• The prime reason for high speed levels is due to coastal location which is prone to developing of air and water atmospheric pressure which then takes a shape of cyclone.
