About Hurricanes A hurricane is a powerful storm that measures several hundred miles in diameter. Hurricanes have two main parts. The first is the eye of the hurricane, which is a calm area in the center of the storm. Usually, the eye of a hurricane measures about 20 miles in diameter, and has very few clouds. The second part is the wall of clouds that surrounds the calm eye. This is where the hurricane's strongest winds and heaviest rain occur. Inside a Hurricane Hurricanes are born over warm, tropical oceans. Hurricanes are fueled by water vapor that is pushed up from the warm ocean surface, so they can last longer and sometimes move much further over water than over land. The combination of heat and moisture, along with the right wind conditions, can create a new hurricane. Understanding a Radar Image The colors in hurricane radar images indicate the amount of rain falling in a given area (see above, right). Each raindrop reflects the energy from the radar. Therefore, the more raindrops in a certain area, the brighter the color in the radar image of that area. Simply, the radar image above is really measuring the amount of moisture in the air. The brighter the color on the radar image, the more moisture in the air. The bright red color around the eye indicates the area of heaviest rainfall. The green colored area has a moderate amount of rain, while the blue areas represent the least amount of rain. To learn more about hurricanes, CLICK on the buttons below.

What are Hurricanes? Most people associate twisters with tornadoes, but in fact tropical twisters come from hurricanes. Hurricanes are what scientists call "strong Tropical Cyclones". They are formed when large areas of the ocean become heated, and the air pressure over that area drops. This causes thunderstorms and strong surface winds. Cyclones develop over tropical or sub-tropical waters (for example, in the Atlantic off the coast of Africa, or in the Pacific). As they travel long distances gathering energy from the ocean, they are likely to be classified as strong Tropical Cyclones. When the winds of a tropical storm reach 74 mph, then the storm is classified as a hurricane. How are Hurricanes Created? Why do Hurricanes Move? How Dangerous are They? One of NASA's most important missions is to develop an understanding of the total Earth system and study the effects of natural and human- induced changes on the global environment. To achieve these goals, NASA has developed satellites and ground programs which study and monitor hurricanes and other climatic events. ESE Kids Only Home ESE Homepage NASA Air ...

How are Hurricanes Named? Hurricanes names are chosen from a list selected by the World Meteorological Organization. The Atlantic is assigned six lists of names, with one list used each year. Every sixth year, the first list begins again. Each name on the list starts with a different letter, for example, the name of the very first hurricane of the season starts with the letter A , the next starts with the letter B , and so on. The letters "Q", "U", "X", "Y" and "Z", however, are not used. Often when an unusually destructive hurricane hits, that hurricane's name is retired and never used again. Since 1954, forty names have been retired. In 1996 Hurricane Luis was retired. Is your name among the currently used or retired hurricane names?

MAIN PAGE WORLD U.S. WEATHER ... ABOUT US CNN TV what's on show transcripts CNN Headline News CNN International ... askCNN EDITIONS CNN.com Asia CNN.com Europe set your edition Languages Time, Inc. Time.com People Fortune EW Why more monster hurricanes are coming Pete Davies (CNN) Scientists say changing weather cycles mean we will see a higher number of monster hurricanes in the next 10 to 40 years. Such storms could cause $50 billion in damage and hundreds of thousands of deaths in the next decade alone. Two factors are involved: warmer ocean temperatures and less wind shear to inhibit the storms. CNN's Colleen McEdwards spoke with journalist and author of "Inside the Hurricane" Pete Davies to learn a little more about the phenomenon. McEDWARDS: What is it about the warmer ocean temperatures that affect the cycle of hurricanes? DAVIES: It's very clear from the historical record now that we have a pattern of quiet and then busy periods, with intense hurricane activity in the North Atlantic. We appear from 1995 to have entered a new busy period. From 1970 to 1994, there was an average of 1.5 intense hurricanes per year. We are now looking at the more scarier and alarming prospect of three major hurricanes every year on average. And looking at the historical record, you can be pretty certain that mode in the Atlantic is going to go on for at least 20 and possibly 40 years, because that's what it has done in the past.

39. All About Hurricanes hurricanes start life as a cluster of strong thunderstorms moving across the ocean,called a tropical disturbance or tropical wave. Atmospheric conditions http://teacher.scholastic.com/activities/wwatch/hurricanes/extreme/

Scholastic Home About Us Site Map Search ... Customer Service What is a hurricane? A tropical wave that begins spinning around a center of low pressure is called a "tropical depression." Tropical depressions have "maximum sustained wind speeds" at the surface of the ocean of less than 40 mph. When the maximum winds reach 40 mph or greater, the storm changes into a "tropical storm," and it is given a name (see a list of this year's names ). Once the maximum winds reach 74 mph or greater, the storm becomes a hurricane. Hurricanes have an "eye" of calm winds and low pressure, surrounded by an "eyewall" of intense thunderstorms with high winds and heavy rain. "Spiral bands" of intense thunderstorms spiral into the eyewall of the hurricane from the outer parts of the storm. "Tropical cyclone" is the generic name for a hurricane. Tropical cyclones are called "typhoons" when they occur in the western Pacific Ocean, and "cyclones" in the Indian and south Pacific Oceans. Illustration: Slim Films To get a hurricane you need: 1) O cean water temperatures of at least 80º Fahrenheit.
