Question: On the morning of April 17, 2009 Cyclone Bijli made landfall just south of a seaport city located on the banks of what river?

Tropical Storm Fay was a strong and unusual tropical storm that moved erratically across the state of Florida and the Caribbean Sea.  The sixth named storm of the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season, Fay formed from a vigorous tropical wave on August 15 over the Dominican Republic.  It passed over the island of Hispaniola, into the Gulf of Gonâve, across the island of Cuba, and made landfall on the Florida Keys late in the afternoon of August 18 before veering into the Gulf of Mexico.  It again made landfall near Naples, Florida, in the early hours of August 19 and progressed northeast through the Florida peninsula, emerging into the Atlantic Ocean near Melbourne on August 20.  Extensive flooding took place in parts of Florida as a result of its slow movement.  On August 21, it made landfall again near New Smyrna Beach, Florida, moving due west across the Panhandle, crossing Gainesville and Panama City, Florida.  As it zigzagged from water to land, it became the first storm in recorded history to make landfall in Florida four times.  Thirty-six deaths were blamed on Fay.  The storm also resulted in one of the most prolific tropical cyclone related tornado outbreaks on record.  A total of 81 tornadoes touched down across five states, three of which were rated as EF2.  Damage from Fay was heavy, estimated at $560 million. <SEP> Cyclone Hudah was a powerful and destructive tropical cyclone that affected Southeast Africa in April 2000.  It was the last in a series of three cyclones that impacted Madagascar during the year.  Hudah first developed as a disturbance embedded within the monsoon trough on March 22, within the Australian region cyclone basin.  Moving westward as the result of a strong subtropical ridge to its south, the storm quickly intensified, and reached Category 2 cyclone intensity on March 25 before entering the Southwest Indian cyclone basin.  For various reasons that remain unknown, the cyclone was only designated a name by the time it had crossed into the area of responsibility of the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center in Réunion.  Nonetheless, Météo-France (MFR) assigned the name "Hudah" to the cyclone.  An eye formed, and the storm intensified into a tropical cyclone on March 27 well to the southeast of Diego Garcia.  On April 1, the MFR upgraded it to a very intense tropical cyclone, estimating peak 10 minute winds of 225 km/h (140 mph).  By contrast, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) estimated 1 minute winds of 235 km/h (145 mph).  Cyclone Hudah maintained peak winds until making landfall just southeast of Antalaha, Madagascar on April 2.  It weakened greatly over land, but re-attained tropical cyclone status on April 5 after moving over the Mozambique Channel.  Hudah reached 10 minute winds of 160 km/h (100 mph) by the time it made landfall on Mozambique near Pebane, Mozambique, on April 8, and dissipated by the next day. <SEP>  The city is located on the banks of the Karnaphuli River between the Chittagong Hill Tracts and the Bay of Bengal. Chittagong is a major coastal seaport city and financial centre in southeastern Bangladesh.  The city has a population of more than 2.5 million while the metropolitan area has a population of 4,009,423 at the 2011 Census, making it the second largest city in the country.  It is the capital of an eponymous district and division.  Much of Chittagong Division is located within the ecological Indo-Burma zone on the boundary of the India Plate and Burma Plate.  This makes Chittagong the crossroads of the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia.  The port city has been known by various names in history, including Chatigaon, Chatigam, Chattagrama, Islamabad, Chattala, Chaityabhumi and Porto Grande De Bengala. <SEP> Cyclone Bijli (JTWC designation: 01B, also known as Cyclonic Storm Bijli), was the first tropical cyclone to form during the 2009 North Indian Ocean cyclone season.  Bijli formed from an area of Low Pressure on April 14.  Later that evening, RSMC New Delhi upgraded the low pressure area to a Depression and designated it as BOB 01.  The Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) then issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert for the system and soon after designated it as Tropical Depression 01B.  On the evening of April 15, both RSMC New Delhi and the JTWC reported that the system had intensified into a tropical storm, with the former naming it Bilji.  Soon after, Bilji reached its peak intensity as it approached the coast of Bangladesh.  However, on the morning of April 17, Bijli weakened to a deep depression due to land interaction, before making landfall just south of Chittagong.  The remnants of Bilji continued to weaken as they tracked across northern Myanmar, before RSMC New Delhi issued their last advisory on April 18.  The word Bijli refers to lightning in Hindi.
