Q1What was the name of the cyclonic storm that occurred in the Bay of Bengal in May 2022?
Explanation
The cyclonic storm over the Bay of Bengal in May 2022 was Asani. Tauktae was a May 2021 Arabian Sea cyclone, so the basin and year do not match. Gulab formed in 2021 and is associated with the Bay of Bengal season, but not May 2022. Fani was a major 2019 Bay of Bengal cyclone, making it a tempting distractor for Odisha-linked cyclone questions, but it is outside the date asked here. Asani alone matches both May 2022 and the Bay of Bengal.
