Emnati struck on the southeastern side of the island, where another cyclone, Batsirai, killed scores of people just under three weeks ago.
But it was later on Wednesday reclassified as a tropical storm as its speed slowed to 100 kmh and there were no early reports of casualties or damage. Emnati was expected to exit into the ocean by Wednesday evening, the meteorological department said. Last week Storm Dumako killed at least 14 and displaced more than 4,300, the island’s disaster relief agency said.
Clare Nullis, a spokeswoman at the World Meteorological Organization, said it was rare to have groups of cyclones in the same area in close succession.
