The 2010 North Indian Ocean cyclone season was the most active tropical cyclone season in the North Indian Ocean since 1998.Yearly and Seasonal Frequency of Cyclones and Depressions http://www.rmcchennaieatlas.tn.nic.in/AnnualFreq_Output.aspx?Param=U2Vhc29uOjE4OTE6MjAxMToxOjI6Mzo6MjozOkJPQitBUytMYW5kOkNTK1NDUw== India Meteorological Department 5 September 2012June 2024 InternetArchiveBot yes (Note: Creation of an account in the website is required in order to access data.) The season saw 8 depressions and 5 named storms forming in the region.
The official Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre in this basin is the India Meteorological Department (IMD), while the Joint Typhoon Warning Center releases unofficial advisories to the Indian Ocean in the Northern Hemisphere, east of the Horn of Africa and west of the Malay Peninsula. There are two main seas in the North Indian Ocean — the Arabian Sea to the west of the Indian subcontinent, abbreviated ARB and the Bay of Bengal to the east, abbreviated BOB by the IMD.

Seasonal summary
The season officially started on May 17, 2010, with Cyclone Laila and ended on December 8, 2010. During the season, cyclones Laila, Phet, Giri and Jal along with Bandu caused excessive life loss across the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East.
This is the only season to have five named storms since the 1998 North Indian Ocean cyclone season. Multiple storms together killed some 402 people wreaking damage worth at least US$2.985 billion. Albeit very active, no tropical storms formed between mid June and early October because of a very strong southwest monsoon, a weather anomaly that caused the 2010 Pakistan floods.

system moved north along the western coast of India, restrengthening slightly, but not enough for it to regenerate completely. Within a few hours, the storm started moving inland, due to the prevailing winds. The system rapidly weakened as it moved farther inland over the next few days, causing severe flooding along the way. Early on November 12, the remnants of Cyclone Jal were completely absorbed by a non-tropical low over the Himalayas.

In early December, a low-pressure area formed over the Bay of Bengal. The low-pressure area moved towards the Indian coast and became more well marked. On December 7, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) upgraded the area of low pressure to a depression giving it the designation "BOB 06". At that time it was located approximately 450 km south-southwest of Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India.IMD CWIND Bulletin 01 for Depression BOB06 http://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/cwind.htm India Meteorological Department 10 December 2010 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20101204201221/http://imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/cwind.htm 4 December 2010 Until December 8, the depression moved northwestwards and made landfall at Bapatla, Andhra Pradesh, India where it dissipated into a remnant low soon after the landfall.IMD CWIND Bulletin 05 for Depression BOB06 http://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/cwind.htm India Meteorological Department 10 December 2010 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20101204201221/http://imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/cwind.htm 4 December 2010 IMD CWIND Bulletin 06 for Depression BOB06 http://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/cwind.htm India Meteorological Department 10 December 2010 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20101204201221/http://imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/cwind.htm 4 December 2010
