During a cyclone, one typically sees strong winds, and sometimes driving rain or heavy downpours. Debris is lifted and sent flying, roofs can be torn off and trees uprooted. They are bot spun into the air as happens with a tornado. In the centre is a clear, calm region called the 'eye'. When the cyclone continues its course, and the winds return from the other direction, they may seem to be more violent. The winds are not just rotating; there is also the effect of the warmer air continually rising and more air rushing in. That is why the winds are so strong, and seem to move in all directions. This is why one must never venture outdoors during the eye, as the danger is not yet over.

After a cyclone is when the cleanup begins. There is usually some aftermath following the strong winds, and some cyclones dump huge amounts of rainfall, so flooding may occur, although this is not the norm. After a cyclone has passed, people are advised to stay indoors or in their shelter, waiting for the signal for "all clear" before venturing out. Naturally, once one is outside, one must be aware of the likelihood of fallen power lines. People should only go out if it is necessary, as cleanup crews will be working to ensure the area is safe.

Do not go out till officially advised that it is safe. If evacuated, wait till advised to go back. Use the recommended route for returning and do not rush.

Check for gas leakage before using stove.

Dry electric appliances thoroughly before use.

Be careful of snakebites.

Beware of fallen power lines, damaged bridges, buildings and trees.

Do not enter floodwater.

Depending on how powerful the typhoon is, people either return to normal or people do their best to survive because of the damage, or other countries help the country out with medical supplies, food, water, and shelter.

How does the full moon and the new moon phases affect the east cost during a Nor'easter storm?

During the full moon and new moon the sprig tides occur, meaning the high tides are at their highest and the low tides are at their lowest. Large, intense storm systems such as nor'easters produce a storm surge as their winds push ocean water onto land, causing coastal flooding. If the storm surge comes in during high-tide the effect is called a storm tide as the two combine their heights and cause more flooding than if the storm surge could on its own. This is enhanced even more if it happens during the spring tides. By contrast, if the storm surge comes in at low tide, the flooding will be reduced.


Is a storm watch worse than a storm warning?

No. A watch means conditions are favorable for a storm to occur. A warning means the storm is there/has already formed.
