Indian authorities have evacuated tens of thousands of people from vulnerable coastal areas in the eastern state of Andhra Pradesh ahead of a severe cyclone over the Bay of Bengal, according to an ABC News wire story. That report said the cyclone is expected to make landfall along the country's east coast.

The storm, named Arnab, is forecast to make landfall Wednesday on the country's eastern coast, then cut inland and head north toward Nepal, according to a report by Max Kim and Hari Kumar for The New York Times. That account, summarized under a headline stating that India is evacuating tens of thousands as Cyclone Arnab approaches, is the only one of the two sources to describe the storm's path after landfall.

Both sources describe the eastern coast as the expected landing area, and their summaries do not conflict on that point. The ABC News summary names Andhra Pradesh as the state where evacuations have taken place, while the Times summary does not name a state. The Times summary gives Wednesday as the forecast landfall day, while the ABC News summary gives no day.

Both accounts describe the storm as a matter of forecast rather than observed conditions. The ABC News summary says the cyclone is expected to make landfall, and The New York Times says it is forecast to do so, so neither summary reports that landfall has occurred.

The summaries do not report wind speeds, rainfall totals, shelter counts, casualties, or statements from officials. Those details are not available from the summaries provided for this report, and the full texts of both stories would be needed to confirm them.
