Don't put it in a damn valley then. They always make that mistake.
It's a defence against the winds.

Does Bell Rock LightHouse not count? I think it would survive.

Yeah you are right. Hope for the best.

Quote At last tally (2 a.m. Friday, India time), one satellite-based measure of Phailin’s strength estimated the storm’s central pressure at 910.7 millibars, with sustained winds of 175 mph (280 kph). If those numbers were verified by official forecast agencies, they would place Phailin on par with 2005′s Hurricane Katrina, and break the record for the most intense cyclone in Indian Ocean recorded history.
You are in our thoughts. Stay safe.

Wow, this is scary. We'll think of you, take care.

It looks bad. I wish the best for everyone in the path of that thing.

Thanks for the concern Soren. I was safe. Saturday night was scary with wind blowing @200Km/hr.
It did some destruction, but became weak after some hours. There are some districts still inside water. It will take some time to recover to normal condition.
In my place, we got electricity after 3 days. We arranged foods and other required materials for some days.
However, majority of people got saved.

Good to hear you got through it. I have been too busy to watch the news lately, so I did not know how everything turned out.

It's not even a year ago and I was there (Hurricane Sandy).
Take what can't be replaced, find as safe a place as possible, and then there's the waiting.

Yeh, I was safe. It did some destruction, but it became weak after some hours. 
Thanks a lot for the concern.

Stay safe, man!
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

Thanks Marco.
I was safe and Phialin stopped after some destruction. But Saturday night was very scary with wind blowing at about 200Km per hour.

Keep safe and if you're able to escape the landfall area do so. High winds and flooding don't care how brave or stubborn you are.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Only if you believe in interventionist deities.

Ofcourse... And it really helped. After two days, Phailin flew away. Still some parts of my state are inside water and it will take some time to recover.
But, it did not destruct as per the initial estimation.

How can you determine whether it was down to the praying or was just going to happen anyway?

I asked Mrs Wife where did she want to go last night.
It warmed my heart to see her face melt in sweet appreciation.
"Somewhere I haven't been in a long time!" she said.
So I suggested the kitchen
And that's when the fight started....
