Cyclone Ashobaa approaches Oman????????????????

Cyclone Ashobaa is bringing its first rain to Oman as residents hope the storm will not live up to its name.

"In Sri Lanka, Ashobaa means unlucky,'' said a Sri Lankan expatriate working in Oman.

This storm is, however, at the lower end of the intensity scale. At its peak on Wednesday, Ashobaa will just become the equivalent of a category one hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Scale.

ok I do not ever remember a storm here
