Hussm Mahm Aloud Case Study Of Hurricanes

I have always found the ocean to be a very intriguing part of the Earth. There are infinitely many discoveries that have yet to be made about it. My fascination with the ocean sparked the idea to do my class paper on hurricanes and what they are along with their effects. I remember hearing about all the damages from Hurricane Katrina after it hit the coast near New Orleans. The only information I really know about them is what is briefly covered on the news. I thought it would be interesting to discover the true effects they can have on not only people that endure them, but also the environment as it gets ripped to shreds by the plethora of winds and water.

Natural disasters occurring from the climate change could be on the rise. Global warming has been rumored to be causing more hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, heavier monsoonal rains that cause major flooding, mud slides, and other disasters worldwide. A tropical cyclone, also referred to as hurricanes, typhoons, or cyclones, depending on where in the world the cyclone is occurring, are one of the world’s grandest shows of energy provided by nature. Hurricanes are large, swirling, low pressure storms that have sustained winds of over 74 miles an hour and are formed over warm ocean waters (NASA, n.d.). The purpose of this paper is to discuss hurricanes

Hurricanes leave a lot of damage to the states they hit. It also can kill people and leave people injured, my topic is Hurricane Sandy and this affected a lot of people.

Some of the most powerful hurricanes have flattened. Immense flooding are one of the various effects of hurricanes on land. Some areas can receive up to 20 inches of rain due to hurricanes. The winds of a certain hurricane can rip trees right out of the ground and even move buildings to another location. Hurricanes can cause dune destruction and beach erosion. This leaves the area susceptible to future storms. Actually, the revenue from tourism is threatened when these beaches are damaged. To conclude, hurricanes can be highly destructive on coastal area and populated

Category 5 hurricanes are the highest level of impact and size a hurricane can be; therefore they can be very catastrophic and one must prepare (especially when you live in Florida). There are many ways you can prepare efficiently for a hurricane, even if you can not accurately predict when, where, or how hard it will hit.

THESIS STATEMENT: One of nature’s most powerful and destructive storms are hurricanes. Although they can be deadly to humans and animals and have been known to cause extensive destruction, they also play a very important and beneficial role on Earth.

On September 21 1938 an enormous hurricane hit the east coast, RI and Long island was greatly impacted. This storm was very powerful due to various conditions. One of them was the weather, between the waves, winds, and floods the storm was very deadly. Some other conditions contributed to the destruction, but one in particular put the nailin the coffin, human error. The impact that this hurricane caused was trmendous it destroyed many people's lives.

If anyone has ever wondered what it’s like to live through a hurricane regardless of its strength, I can personally tell you that Hurricane Ike was a monster of a storm to ever be faced in the 2008 Atlantic season; It was not only one of the costliest hurricanes in Texas, but also one of the most powerful.

Scientists can study, form opinions, and send warnings, but the hurricane is a force that can turn on temperature, atmospheric pressure, and just general elements. As with the unpredictability of a hurricane, once Katrina made landfall it weakened to a category three still maintaining winds of 125 miles per hour. As it moved inland she weakened to a category one, yet the winds had already slammed the land it had reached. Resulting in storm surges and battering waves, collapsing barriers, and creating extensive flooding causing eighty percent of New Orleans’ enlarged portions of nearby areas to become flooded with the water which would not recede for weeks. This is the largest displacement of population since the Great Depression of over one million people (Zimmermann.)

Hermine weakened while crossing from Florida into Georgia, but still produced sustained winds of 45 mph (72 km/h) at Savannah, with gusts to 58 mph (93 km/h).[77] Farther northeast, Folly Island, South Carolina, reported sustained winds of 44 mph (71 km/h) with gusts to 59 mph (95 km/h),[78] and the pier in Duck, North Carolina, reported sustained winds of 58 mph (93 km/h) with gusts to 73 mph (117 km/h).[79] Heavy rainfall occurred through the Carolinas, reaching 10.72 in (272 mm) in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina.[80] At Norfolk International Airport, wind gusts reached 43 mph (69 km/h).[81] In Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, Hermine's passage left around 274,000 people without power.[40][42][82][83]

Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to almost lose a child during birth? Well on a cold, snowy January night at Floyd hospital, 15 years ago Brandy and Cory was blessed with a miracle, a sweet baby boy, his heart stopped three times during birth. Hunter was born at 11:57 p.m. on January 21, 2001, if he would have waited three more minutes he would have had a different birthday.

I was born in a large kingdom we were know as the hurricane because of our power and we feared nothing, we proud and we destroy everything in our way that was the creed of my father, my parents were the King and queen of heavendeal. when I turned five my parents declared war on a neighboring country my parent thought that our army was stronger than there's but when they came there was thousand of them came marching to our walls my parents and whole army left throw the escape tunnels and only five of the army stayed with the people when the other army came they ask for the king and queen one of the army leaders ask why because they kill my son if you don't bring them we will kill everyone in the city now bring them they know they left

One day a man named James Nasmith decided to make a game. He made the game because he lived in Springfield, Massachusetts Which was very cold and snowy and his students wanted something to do. So he told the janitor to go get some boxes. When the janitor cold not find any he got some peach baskets with he nailed to a balcony. Because of that on 1891 Basketball was invented.

Did you know that Hurricanes have killed approximately 1.9 million people worldwide over the past 200 years. (Karen lenhardt said in her 2017 article on facts about hurricanes). We are seeing more and more of these occur, this year we have already encountered 13 named storms, 7 of them being hurricanes. Only four other seasons since 1995 have had that many by Sept. 18. Just two more by the end of the year would put 2017 in the top 15 since 1851. Maggie Astor stated in her New York Times news report about the 2017 Hurricane season . We must take notice and learn about the hurricane process so that we are able to understand the stages that hurricanes go through to get to be so fierce and devastating to get the strength to kill that many people.

As hurricanes form, they tend to pose significant problems and have devastating impacts on the ocean, land, and on society. In the ocean, hurricanes cause strong winds to occur which in turn, has a large impact on the shipping market. Hurricanes cause the wind to change direction around the eye, causing chaotic sea swells and waves in which a ship is not able to steer around because the waves come from all
