HURRICANES Are You Ready?

WHAT IS A HURRICANE? A Hurricane is a storm with a violent wind, exceeding 72 mph. Hurricane 101

WHAT IS A HURRICANE? Form over really warm ocean water- 80°F or warmer. Energy from warm ocean waters forms a center of low pressure. Higher temperatures, more evaporation, more energy!

WHAT IS A HURRICANE? Storm Simulator Form in tropical regions, north and south of the equator. Hurricanes rotate in a counter-clockwse direction (Northern hemisphere) around the low pressure center called the "eye." Storm Simulator

Hurricane Damage Storm Surge Storm surge damage: Accounts for 90% of all hurricane deaths Large dome of water often 50 to 100 miles wide that sweeps across the coastline near where a hurricane makes landfall. The stronger the hurricane and the shallower the offshore water, the higher the surge is. Storm Surge

POWERFUL WINDS Powerful Winds
