[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 872718, member: 1246"] [FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=black]Hurricane Trivia.................... A hurricane is a severe tropical storm that forms in the North Atlantic Ocean, the Northeast Pacific Ocean east of the dateline, or the South Pacific Ocean east of 160E. Hurricanes rotate in a counter-clockwise direction around an "eye." A tropical storm becomes a hurricane when winds reach 74 mph. Hurricanes are classified into five categories, based on their wind speeds and potential to cause damage. * Category One -- Winds 74-95 miles per hour * Category Two -- Winds 96-110 miles per hour * Category Three -- Winds 111-130 miles per hour * Category Four -- Winds 131-155 miles per hour * Category Five -- Winds greater than 155 miles per hour In other regions of the world, Hurricane type storms have different names. *Typhoon - the Northwest Pacific Ocean west of the dateline *Severe Tropical Cyclone - the Southwest Pacific Ocean west of 160E or Southeast Indian Ocean east of 90E *Severe Cyclonic Storm - the North Indian Ocean *Tropical Cyclone - the Southwest Indian Ocean [/COLOR][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
