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.

45. CNN.com - Why More Monster Hurricanes Are Coming - July 20, 2001 CNN http://cnn.com/2001/WEATHER/07/20/davies.hurricane.cnna.cnna/index.html

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.

Grade 7 Natural Disasters Project A hurricane is a powerful cyclone (low-pressure area containing rising warm air) that forms over tropical oceans. During late summer and early autumn, low-pressure areas often form over the Caribbean or the Gulf of Mexico. Warm, moist air begins to rise rapidly. Cooler air moves in, and the air begins to spin. As the air pressure in the center drops, more air is drawn into the spinning system. The system begins to spin faster. The rapidly spinning, rising air forms a doughnut-shaped wall of strong winds, clouds, and rainfall. Inside the wall, the air is calm. This calm center is called the eye of the hurricane. Outside the eye, winds may reach rotational speeds close to 480 km/h. The high waves and strong winds of a hurricane often cause great damage, especially in coastal areas. Heavy rain may also cause serious flooding. Meteorologists can track the path of a hurricane and issue watches or warnings to people living near the coast as the storm approaches. A typical hurricane lasts for about 9 days. In extreme cases, hurricanes can last as long as 3 to 4 weeks. In terms of the total energy involved, hurricanes are the most powerful storms on Earth.

56. What Are Hurricanes What Are hurricanes? hurricanes are large tropical storms with heavy winds. Button that takes you back to Severe Weather hurricanes main page. http://www.cotf.edu/ete/modules/sevweath/swwhatare.html

Skip Navigation What Are Hurricanes? Hurricanes are large tropical storms with heavy winds. By definition, they contain winds in excess of 74 miles per hour (119 km per hour) and large areas of rainfall. In addition, they have the potential to spawn dangerous tornadoes. The strong winds and excessive rainfall also produce abnormal rises in sea levels and flooding. Christopher Columbus was the first European in modern times to write about the hurricane. The Indians of Guatemala called the god of stormy weather "Hunrakan." Similar names were probably present throughout the Caribbean. Captain Fernando de Oviedo gave storms their modern name when he wrote "So when the devil wishes to terrify them, he promises them the 'Huracan,' which means 'tempest.'" The same storms in other parts of the world are known as typhoons, baqulros, Bengal cyclones and willy-willies. The ocean-water temperature has to be above 79 degrees F in order for a hurricane to be generated, so they normally form in late summer and early fall when the conditions are right. Meteorologists use the term tropical storm when a storm's winds are under 74 miles per hour, and hurricane when the wind speed rises. A hurricane has a peaceful center called the eye, that is often distinctive in satellite images. The eye stretches from 10 to 30 miles wide and often contains calm winds, warm temperatures and clear skies. Around this tropical bliss is a frenzy of winds gusting at speeds up to 186 miles per hour. If one percent of the energy in one hurricane could be captured, all the power, fuel, and heating requirements of the United States could be met for an entire year. It takes 500 trillion horsepower to whirl the great core of winds at such tremendous speeds. It is the equivalent of exploding an atomic bomb every 10 seconds.

Hurricanes by Rachel Rusch and Janira Vazquez, grade 8 Hurricanes are very destructive storms of nature. They consist of very powerful and deadly winds that measure from 200-300 miles in diameter. Near the center or the eye of the storm, winds measure up to 74 miles per hour or more. The heavy winds cause large waves which contribute to devastating floods. Over 90% of deaths in hurricanes occur from drowning. Development Hurricanes develop from easterly waves in long narrow regions of low pressure from trade winds. There are different levels of intensity before a storm develops into a hurricane. It develops from easterly waves to tropical depressions, to tropical storms, then into a hurricane. They form in the North Pacific and Atlantic Oceans over warm water in areas of low pressure; usually in the hurricane season of June to November. However, most storms occur in September. There are usually about 6-8 hurricanes each year. Effects Hurricanes in the United states affect mostly the Atlantic ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. They move around the eye in a counterclockwise direction, and usually move west to gain power. Most affect the east coast greatly. Several storms have caused devastating results here in Florida. Including Hurricane Andrew . It was one of the most intense storms in the 1900's history of the United states.
