Hurricanes are a type of natural disaster.

Hurricanes typically have deadly

winds, frequent thunder and large amounts of rain, usually resulting in floods and
sometimes have tornados in them.
There are 7 Category’s to a Tropical Storm/ Hurricane. A tropical depression,
Tropical storm, and 5 Hurricane categories. In each Category, the winds and pos-
sible damage of the Hurricane increases. In a Tropical Depression, it already has
high winds and rain, and is already an low pressure system and has closed surface
circulation, but not the characteristics of higher category’s. Next, in addition to
what an tropical Depression has, Tropical Storm is the first category to be named,
and starts to have the cyclonic shape of an Hurricane. Last, in addition to the
above 2 categories, an Hurricane has completely formed its eye( which is visible),
eyewall and wind field.

There are also many parts to a Hurricane. They eye, the eyewall and the portion
outside of that. The eye is where it is clam and is free of clouds. It is free of clouds
because the Hurricanes air is deep enough to block cloud formations. The eye is
usually circular in shape and typically between 30-65 Km in diameter. The second
part of the Hurricane is just outside the eye, and it is called eyewall. In this part of
the Hurricane, the Hurricane has the strongest winds and heaviest perception.
This is also the part where the cloud reaches their highest altitudes and the cloud
are moving the quickest.
Hurricanes are usually formed over bodies of deep, warm waters, usually near
the equator between May and November in the north Atlantic. Hurricane could
also formed from an tropical wave.
Other possible factors needed for a hurricane to from is that they need rapid
cooling with height, high humidity, Low amount of wind shear and an pre-existing
storm system.
