Braylee Munholland Mr. Richardson 5th hour 15 March 2018 Hurricanes Storm winds and dangers thunderstorms image if you were in a hurricane. Image if you were in dangerous hurricane I will tell you how they track hurricanes, how/where they start, etc. Have you ever wonder how a hurricane forms? Here are how they form, According to https://eo.ucar.edu/kids/dangerwx/hurricane3.htm “Hurricanes happen when the oceans have been warmed during summer months.”The ocean has to be at least 80 degrees fahrenheit for a hurricane to happen. “In the North Atlantic, hurricane season is from June 1 to November 30, but most hurricanes happen during the fall.” If you live near water you have a high risk of having hurricanes in the fall.” Now that you seen how they form here are some ways they track hurricanes. …show more content…
Here are some ways they track them, According to https://www.livescience.com/39678-incredible-tech-track-hurricanes.html “They use drones to track hurricanes.”I am glad that we have the technology to track hurricanes and warn people before they actually hit. “A new planned weather satellite will soon peer through clouds to scan rainfall inside a hurricane, providing 3D views.”With the weather satellite it allows them to see the hurricane 3d with them be able to see it 3d it might help them see it better and it also could help them track it.Now that you seen how they track them here are some ways on why they only happen by the
Hurricanes form over the equator in warm ocean waters. First in a hurricane the winds start to pick up wind on the average reach about 39-73 mile per hour,th but in the great Galveston the winds reached 145 miles per hour the power of the wind can take down trees, houses and building. it rains very hard it is not uncommon during a hurricane to get 5-10 inches of rain. It’s also very common to get floods from the storm surge that averages 25-28 feet above sea level. Even though it is very rare tornadoes
The Latino Student Organization will began its inaugural year in 2015, but had a provisional start in the fall of 2014. The organization started when former Latino Student Organization president Melody Martinez and Dr. Carlos Aleman, an Assistant Professor of Latin American History saw a large number of Latino students and the lack of what every heritage needs to thrive, a community. That is why together they created The Latino Student Organization, or LSO. A place where students latino and non latino can come together and establish a family or una familia. “I love being a part of an organization that really makes me feel part of a family away from my family”, said former President Melody Martinez. The LSO is more than creating a family for
Secondly, the innocent part plays a key role in not seeing much of the world. Barton was much older with more of an understanding on how the world worked. For all the readers know this might have been her first time ever being into trouble. Barton fought the idea of killing Marilyn in his head. He tried to call and get the protocol changed, but in the end failed dramatically when he was turned down.
Another tool that has recently been in use to monitor hurricanes is the NASA Global Hawk, which is an experimental unmanned aircraft that is used to test possible operational capabilities within a hurricane. Likewise, once a hurricane is projected to become a threat to land, the hurricane is immediately monitored by the U.S. Air Force, and NOAA hurricane aircraft, and land stations.
As many know, hurricanes are considered to be among the most powerful forces in nature. A hurricane is a powerful storm system that produces intense winds and heavy rainfall. Hurricanes form over warm ocean water during warm months such as June, July, and August which is known as the
Thanks to its 213 trillion teraflops, NOAA is able to release fairly accurate 5 day forecasts of hurricanes. Granted, after 3 days the accuracy of these forecasts declines but they do serve as very accurate maps within those first 3 days.
Scientists can predict hurricanes using special tools. Hurricane warnings normally come out 36 hours before expected land-fall. Hurricane evacuation routes are provided by the city. Hurricane storm shelters are
I am speaking to you today at the annual Caribbean Studies Association conference to discuss and address the concerns and issues surrounding the rebuilding of many of the Caribbean islands, which have been devastated after this past 2017 hurricane season. Hurricanes Irma and Maria, both category four hurricanes, have wreaked havoc on the Caribbean islands of Barbuda, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Both of these hurricanes were catastrophic, causing significant deaths and infrastructure damages costing billions of dollars. Recently, it seems like there have been significantly more of these types of disasters happening than in the past; and the intensity of these disasters have increased as well. But let’s delve into why these post-colonial societies are so vulnerable to these types of natural disasters and what can be done to better prepare for these disasters in the future, by looking at one of the large-scale earthquakes that has shaken the Caribbean island of Haiti.
Hurricanes are, highly dangerous and large swirling storms that begin over water and they sometimes end up on land. On October, 4th 2016 Hurricane Matthew hit the coasts of Haiti with 130 to 150 mph wind speeds which means it was a Category 4 hurricane. Hurricanes such as Matthew are tracked by forecasters whose job is to give people watching or listening an idea of strong the winds are. The forecasters use a scale called the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane scale it is used to track the winds and categorize the hurricane. The scale has 5 Categories beginning at 74 miles per hour and ending 157 mph and it can go even higher. Lastly, a hurricane has three parts, first the rainbands, the rain bands have rain, thunderstorms and sometimes tornadoes, next
PREVIEW: Hurricanes are huge violent storms, that form near the equator, and are categorize by experts.
Natural disasters have always existed in various forms in all parts of our world. Such disasters range from tornadoes to wildfires and earthquakes, just to name a few. These disasters are hard to predict, and they bring catastrophic damage to the locations they strike and devastation to the people that inhabit these areas. The United States is hit with many different types of natural disasters, but perhaps the most damaging natural disasters which continue to pose a tremendous threat to our country are hurricanes. Over the history of the United States there have been numerous hurricanes.
Hurricanes are large, twirling storms that bring strong winds that can blow up to 74 mph or higher. There are two main ingredients that hurricanes need to form, warm water, and consistent winds. If a hurricane does form, it will include the eye, which is the clam center of the storm, around that there is the eye wall which is normally the strongest part of the storm, on the edges of the hurricane are the rainbands, which are swirling “arms” of clouds, rain, and thunderstorms, they can stretch out from the eye for hundreds of miles. After a hurricane forms it is tracked by meteorologists, and other scientists researching the storms, these people categorize it using the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, this scale is measured in five categories, category one has winds 74-95 mph, category two has winds 96-110 mph, category three has winds 111-129 mph, category four 130-156 mph, and finally category five has 157 mph winds and higher.
Hurricanes form in the late summer and early fall when the sun heats up the surface of the ocean, this change in the weather along with a few other important factors help produce the storm.
For years the war on drugs has continued to be an issue of high debate and controversy in the United States. These debates and controversies have surrounded issues ranging everywhere from possible solutions for the ever prominent drug problem, to the legalization of certain drugs all together. Although the War on Drugs began its battle many years ago, the effects and implications surrounding it may be more evident today than ever. When people think of the war on drugs and the implications that it presents, they are likely to think of increased violence and increased spending by the government as two of the biggest issues. However, perhaps one of the bigger issues that often gets over looked is the disparate
Tropical hurricanes need to have surface water temperatures to be 26°C or more for them to form. As our oceans get hotter hurricanes are able to form farther out in the sea
