Tropical Storm Mekkhala

The name Mekkhala has been used for two tropical cyclones in the western north Pacific Ocean. The name was contributed by Thailand and refers to Mekhala, a guardian-angel of thunder in South Asian myths. This name was spelt Megkhla by the WMO prior to an orthographic update made in 2002.
