The 1999 Odisha Cyclone (also known as Cyclone 05B) was the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded in the Indian Ocean at that time, with wind speeds exceeding 260 km/h. It made landfall in October 1999, causing devastating destruction and approximately 10,000 deaths. This remains the most intense cyclone to hit Odisha in recorded history.
