Hurricanes can usually last for over a week. For example, in late August of 2005, a hurricane called Hurricane Katrina hit along the Gulf Coast of New Orleans and lasted up to about a week. Hurricanes are one of the most dangerous natural disasters ever to hit the United States, and it could cause damaged to the United States along with deaths of people. Thereby, hurricanes can form in 80 degrees, or higher, Fahrenheit in really warm ocean water. This provides more evaporation and energy making clouds and humid air. The wind forces the air upward, above the storm, causing the wind to flow outward and air below to rise up. Afterward, when the humid air rises and the storm clouds form, the outside of the hurricane stirs it up and lets it grow bigger. Between five to fifteen degrees latitude …show more content…
In order to create the spin of a Hurricane, there has to be a Coriolis force. A Coriolis force deflects objects to one side because of the Earth's rotation, so that hurricanes never form near the equator because it becomes too weak. The center of a hurricane is also known as the “eye”. Around the “eye” of a hurricane the rotation goes counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, but in the Southern Hemisphere it goes clockwise. In the meantime, during this natural disaster rain can present which causes extreme flooding to houses, cities or towns (Wicker, 2015). Bring any objects that is outside into a home, because high winds can blow large objects and damage a house. Not only those types of weather can present during a hurricane, but the most dangerous type of
