✦ Synopsis

The problem of storm surges is introduced briefly. The utility of passive microwave observations to study this phenomenon is pointed out. The reasons for the nonoccurrence of severe surges in the nay of Bengal, during monsoon regimes, is discussed in this paper. It was demonstrated that the predominapt reason for lack of severe surges over the Bay of Bengal coast is due to the absence of weak wind shear during monsoon seasons.
