TROPICAL CYCLONE ADVICE NUMBER 001Issued at 09:55 am on Monday, December 11, 2006BY Anonymous
A SEVERE CATEGORY 4 CYCLONE is now current for AMPARA and MATARA District coastal areas. At 06:00 am local time SEVERE TROPICAL CYCLONE MONTY was estimated to be80 kilometres northeast of Ampara District and moving southwest at 10 kilometres per hour.Severe Tropical Cyclone Monty is expected to cross the coast in the vicinity of Ampara and MataraDistricts during Monday. Gales with gusts to 180 kilometres per hour are likely in coastal communities inAmpara and Matara District during the day.
This is to alert the residents of Ampara and Matara District about the potential of a very dangerous
storm tide as the cyclone centre approaches the coast. Tides are likely to rise significantly above thenormal high tide mark with very dangerous flooding, damaging waves and strong currents.
Widespread heavy rain and further flooding are likely in southern parts of the Ampara and Matara Districtsover the next few days.

Reliability and Effectiveness of the ICT
Reliability is measured as the difference between the time it takes ICTGuardian to receive message and the time the message was received bythe ICT Provider.

Discussion of the Hypothesis
1. Stage 4 & 5 Sarvodaya villages that are more organized, i.e., have a formal
structure that enables coordination and direction of activities will respond moreeffectively to hazard warnings than less organized stage 1, 2 & 3 villages.
2. Villages that are provided training in recognizing and responding to hazardsalong with deployment of ICTs will respond more effectively to hazard warnings than
villages that received no training.
3. Villages that have ICTs deployed for dissemination of hazard information will respond more effectively to hazard warnings than villages that have to rely on their existing channels of information for warnings.
4. ICTs that in addition to their hazard function, can also be leveraged in other areasto enrich the lives of the villages will potentially have lower downtime than ICTs that are poorly integrated into the day to day life of the beneficiaries.
