May), 39.4 ms -1 (21 UTC, 24 May), 41.8 ms -1 (22 UTC, 24 May). The
distribution patterns of wind at 10 m height for different cases also differed in
time and space (Fig. 3(a-e)).
The paths of 'Aila' differed for different combination (Fig. 4(a-e)) as well
as from the IMD and JTWC tracks. The average distances of KFFR, KFKS,
KFLN, KFWSM3 and KFWSM5 tracks from IMD track were 137.0 km, 285.4
km, 182.5 km, 107.1 km and 105.4 km respectively and deviation was more
during landfall. Similarly the average distance from the JTWC were 75.6 km,
