Defining a Hurricane

Definition Hurricane Hurricane is a tropical cyclone with wind speeds of over 74 mph. Winds can sometimes reach 155 miles per hour. Another feature of hurricanes is that they are bulky and can range in diameter from 200 to 300 miles. In the center of each storm is the so-called Image to Right. Arashi's eyes usually range from 20 miles to 30 miles, the most quiet part of the storm. The wind speed here is only 74 mph.

The word hurricane, cyclone, typhoon is the name of the same type of storm. This name indicates where the storm occurred. Hurricanes are defined as storms in the North Atlantic Ocean or Caribbean Sea. In the western Pacific, hurricanes are known as typhoons. Cyclone is a hurricane on the Indian Ocean. In 1992, Hurricane Andrew blew South Florida at 140-160 mph (225-258 km / h). Regarding property damage, Andrew was one of the worst hurricanes in North America. The physical damage is great. The entire community had to be cleaned up and rebuilt. Hurricane Andrew killed 50 people and caused more than 25 billion dollars of damage

Hurricane Harvey attacked Texas as a category 4 hurricane in 2017 and tragedy of "Hurricane" in 12 years after the landing of "big hurricane" to America did not exist (main hurricane was defined as level 3 or higher) In August 25, Hurricane Ilma attacked Florida as a category 4 hurricane on September 10. On Monday, the remains of Hurricane Ophelia attacked us in Ireland (the other side of the Atlantic Ocean), we were downgraded to "Arashi" when it arrived

Since 1924, only three hurricanes landed as category 5 hurricanes. One of the most famous hurricanes in recent decades, Hurricane Andrew returned in 1992, when it hit Florida it was a category 5 hurricane. Hurricane Camille, like the 1935 working days hurricane, was fifth in the 1969 attack. Some people are talking about creating a Category 6 hurricane designation, but Category 5 implies almost complete destruction. Therefore there is a measurement difference between the wind speed of 157 mph and the wind speed of 200 mph, but there may not be such a practical difference in destructive power between category 5 hurricane and category 6 hurricane.

Catastrophe Wind - Categories of hurricanes are defined by persistent winds and related results are "destructive damage" for Category 3 and "catastrophic damage" for Categories 4 and 5 It is represented. Hurricane Irma and Maria have an extraordinarily high peak of one minute continuous wind. And it makes the North Atlantic hurricane the strongest rank in history (see the table). On the ground the people on the ground endured the heavy wind. Hurricane Maria was the first category 5 (a continuous wind of over 157 miles per hour) that landed in Dominica (a small Caribbean island in the southeastern part of Puerto Rico). It landed again, this time it is the fourth category of Puerto Rico (continuous wind speed is 130-156 miles). Similarly, Hurricane Harvey and Irma landed in a Category 4 storm in Texas and Florida respectively.
