Cyclone Emnati Batters Madagascar as the Island Reels from Back-to-Back Deadly Storms
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Madagascar has been hit by a major tropical storm for the fourth time in
just the last month. Cyclone Emnati crashed ashore on Madagascar's
southeastern coast Wednesday, bringing sustained 85-mile-an-hour winds
that ripped the roofs off houses and caused flooding. About 200 people
have been killed by cyclones in Madagascar so far this year.
