∙ 12y agoYes. Hurricanes are among the world's deadliest natural disasters; if they hit populated regions, they can kill just as many people as earthquakes. In 1900, the Galveston Hurricane killed between 8,000 and 12,000 people; it is still the deadliest natural disaster of any kind to hit the United States. The world's deadliest storm was the Bhola tropical cyclone which may have killed as many as 500,000 people in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) in 1970. It was equivalent to a Category 3 hurricane.

∙ 11y agosometimes, sometimes not. it depends how strong the hurricanes are and where they are. if it's not very strong, it might cause damage but not death. and if it's in a remote place, it doesn't usually do any damage to people. but the basic answer is: yes, hurricanes can cause death.

∙ 6y agoHurricanes come with many different hazards. The most obvious danger is the wind, which can bring down trees and damage buildings. People have been killed by flying debris and falling trees. The next threat comes from the waves and storm surge.When a hurricane hits, the wind drives seawater onto land, causing severe flooding in low-lying coastal areas. The large waves from hurricanes have been known to sink boats, and can generate dangerous rip currents in coastal areas. Perhaps the deadliest part of a hurricane is the torrential rain. This rain causes severe flooding even away from coastal areas. In some areas the rain may cause landslides. It is also not uncommon for hurricanes to produce tornadoes.
