A fresh cyclone could be developing off the coast of Burma, the UN
said today, as relief workers struggled to get aid to the 1.9 million
people left homeless by cyclone Nargis.
Weather experts said there was a good chance the tropical depression
in the Bay of Bengal could develop into a "significant" cyclone within
the next 24 hours.
