Hurricane facts
???? A hurricane is a tropical storm whose winds revolve around a center of low pressure.
???? The centre is called the eye. In the eye of a hurricane there is a calm area of blue sky.
???? Around the eye there are very strong winds – a minimum speed of 120 kilometres per hour – accompanied by torrential rains.
???? Hurricanes cause more widespread damage than tornadoes because they are bigger – some as large as 1,000 kilometres across.
???? One of the most destructive effect of a hurricane is the storm surge, often causing serious flooding.
