Tropical Storm Francis (also known as Severe Tropical Storm Francis), was a deadly storm that affected most of Madagascar in Early-January 2018. The 6th named storm of the season, Francis developed out of a tropical disturbance that formed about 70 miles northwest of Anorotsangana, Madagascar on December 28. A few hours later, the disturbance strengthened into a depression. It rapidly strengthened once again, becoming a moderate tropical storm only hours later. It later peaked as a severe tropical storm on January 4, before making landfall on the western coast of Madagascar.
