The North Indian tropical cyclone season has no bounds, but they tend to form between April and December, with peaks in May and November. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northern Indian Ocean.

1995 North Indian cyclone season

Tropical Storm One (1B)

Western Pacific Tropical Depression 16W crossed over Vietnam and Myanmar, retaining tropical depression strength over the long passage. It became Tropical Depression 1B on September 13, and continued west-northwestward, slowly consolidating until reaching tropical storm strength on the 16th. It reached a peak of 50 mph just before hitting the Indian coast. It dissipated 4 days later.

Tropical Storm Two (2A)

On October 11, a tropical storm formed and began to move westward across the Arabian Sea, but met its demise from vertical shear on October 18.

Cyclone Three (3B)

The monsoon westerlies spawned a tropical depression on November 5 in the eastern Bay of Bengal. It moved northwestward, becoming a tropical storm on the 5th. Just prior to its Indian landfall on the 9th it reached cyclone strength, but it dissipated over India the next day. The tropical moisture from the system led to a heavy snowfall over the mountains. 62 people were killed from either landslides or avalanches.

Cyclone Four (4B)

The final storm of the season started on November 18 over northern Sumatra. It moved west-northwestward, reaching tropical storm strength on the 22nd. It continued to intensify as it recurved to the northeast, becoming a cyclone on the 23rd and reaching a peak of 120 mph on the 24th. It weakened to a 95 mph cyclone at the time of its Bangladesh landfall on the 25th, and dissipated later that day. The cyclone caused 9 fatalities.

1996 North Indian cyclone season

Tropical Storm One (1B)

An equatorial wind burst developed two tropical cyclones in early May; Jenna in the Southern Indian Ocean and Tropical Depression 1B in the Bay of Bengal, 240 nautical miles northwest of Sumatra. It moved slowly northward without strengthening until the 7th, when it reached its peak of 45 mph winds. The tropical storm made landfall on the 8th near Cox's Bazar District in Bangladesh, dissipating later that day without causing any damage.
