Hurricanes, winds that cause great damage<\/b><\/h2>\n<\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

In the most of cases, a hurricane originates in the tropics and from there it begins to expand its diameter and speed. These cyclones begin when a series of electrical storms move over warm waters. The hot air combines with the heat from the surface of the ocean and begins to rise, which produces a low pressure on the sea surface. Over time a tropical depression can turn into a tropical storm and finally in a hurricane. The part that distinguishes the hurricane is the eye, a center of calm winds, surrounded by a wall of intense winds and storms that produce large bands of precipitation. The place of arrival of the hurricanes is very variable, but the 85% starts is in an area near the African island of Cape Verde. To establish the speed of a hurricane, “hurricane-hunting” planes are used, which by means of a risky maneuver are introduced into the eye to obtain the measurements.<\/p>\n<\/div>

    ONE:<\/strong> A hurricane is a cyclone of great strength that forms a whirlwind and turns in large circles. For a cyclone to be classified as a hurricane it must at least have a rotation speed of 119 kph or 74 mps.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

    TWO:<\/strong> A hurricane usually originates in the tropics and since its formation, in most cases, begins to expand its diameter and speed.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>

    THREE:<\/strong> There are indications, especially since 2017, that global warming has begun to affect the frequency and magnitude of hurricanes.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul>

    What are cyclones?<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>

    They are winds that turn at different speeds, accompanied by storms. So a tropical depression, a tropical storm, a hurricane, a typhoon or a tornado are classified as cyclones.<\/p>\n<\/div>

    To establish the speed of a hurricane, “hurricane-hunting” planes are used, which flies inside the eye of the hurricane and release small probes inside. Some devices have flight autonomy greater than 28 hours and can rise up to 18 km in height, from where they descend to the eye of the storm to release these devices to measure the speed of the hurricane.<\/p>\n<\/div>
