उत्तर

Coromandel coast

Explanation:

The Coromandel coast (located on the Bay of Bengal) is particularly vulnerable to tropical storms since the Bay of Bengal is much warmer than the Arabian Sea. This higher sea surface temperature, combined with favourable wind conditions, supports the rapid formation of low-pressure depressions, especially during the monsoon season (October to December).
