Cyclone George impacted the environment by causing widespread destruction to vegetation, trees, and wildlife habitats. The cyclone's strong winds and heavy rainfall resulted in soil erosion and flooding, which can have long-term effects on the ecosystem's health and stability. The destruction of vegetation and trees can also disrupt the balance of the food chain and ecosystem dynamics in the affected areas.
Power and telephone lines were down in Port Hedland. Roofs were torn off homes and fences were destroyed. Trees were uprooted and at least one home was destroyed. The Bureau of Meteorology's Port Hedland weather radar was damaged and was offline for nearly a day. Schools and businesses were damaged.

Cyclone Selma hit Darwin in 1975. It caused extensive damage, including flooding and destruction of infrastructure, but its impact was overshadowed by Cyclone Tracy which struck later in the same year.
A tropical cyclone can have a significant impact on the built environment by causing structural damage, power outages, flooding, and widespread destruction of buildings and infrastructure. Strong winds and heavy rainfall can result in collapsed roofs, broken windows, and debris spread throughout affected areas, leading to disruptions in transportation, communication, and utilities. The rebuilding process can be costly and time-consuming, requiring significant resources to restore the affected areas.
Cyclone George in 2007 was caused by a combination of warm ocean waters and atmospheric conditions that fueled the development of a tropical low pressure system in the Indian Ocean. As it intensified, the system evolved into a powerful cyclone that eventually made landfall in Western Australia.
In this paper, we review recent worldwide literature on trends in tropical cyclone frequency, intensity, and impact, with special reference to the North Indian.
