HeadlineMar 13, 2023

In Peru, at least six people were killed and hundreds of homes damaged or destroyed over the weekend as a powerful cyclone unleashed torrential rains.

Elsewhere, Australia’s Queensland state experienced record-breaking floods sparked by heavy rain, prompting evacuations.

And on Sunday, Cyclone Freddy made landfall in Mozambique for the second time in a month, breaking an all-time record for the longest-lived tropical cyclone and the highest accumulated energy ever observed in a single storm.
