After one of the worst storms, cyclone Fani hit India, millions of households had plunged into darkness. The storm killed over 40 people. NASA tweeted several images today comparing Bhubaneshwar and Cuttack, before and after the storm.
NASA says that the images show the places where lights went out across some of the most affected areas in Odisha. The article reads, "The images show city lighting on April 30 (before the storm) and on May 5, 2019, two days after Fani made landfall. The storm destroyed several transmission towers and uprooted as many as 156,000 utility poles that must re-installed."
