How is the size of the hurricane determined?
The size of a hurricane is determined by measuring the diameter of the storm, typically from one edge of the storm to the other. The size can vary from small to large depending on the overall structure and intensity of the hurricane. Size is not directly correlated to the storm's intensity or destructive potential.
How is the force of a hurricane measureed?
Hurricane strength is usually determined by the maximum sustained wind speed of a hurricane. This is usually measured with an anemometer.
What is the width of a category 3 hurricane?
There is no given size. Hurricanes are rated based on wind speed, not size and there is no real curreclation between the strength of a hurricane and its size. A category 3 hurricane has sustained winds of 111 to 129 mph.
What is the difference between the size and strength of a hurricane?
The size of a hurricane is how big it is, usually measured by the size of the area that has gale for winds or stronger winds, called the gale diameter. The strength of a hurricane is independent of size and is usually measured in terms of maximum sustained wind speed.
The physical size of an atom is largely determined by?
The physical size of an atom is largely determined by the size of the electron cloud.
What is the diameter of the eye of a hurricane?
It varies widely. Some of the smallest eyes are around two to three miles wide. A normal size eye is about 15 to 30 miles wide. A very large eye can be over 60 miles wide. Generally the stronger the hurricane the smaller the eye.
How is eggs size determined?
It is determined by the weight not the height
Is the size of the hurricane related to its wind speed?
No
Is a bigger hurricane more intense?
The size of a hurricane is not directly associated with its intensity. A hurricane's intensity is typically measured by its maximum sustained wind speed. A larger hurricane may cause more widespread damage due to its larger wind field.
The bigger the hurricane the more intense it is?
Not necessarily. The intensity of a hurricane is measured by its wind speed, which can vary regardless of its size. A smaller hurricane with extremely high wind speeds can be more intense than a larger hurricane with lower wind speeds. Size does not directly correlate with intensity.
Was there a hurricane Caitlin?
No, there has not been a hurricane named Caitlin. The list of hurricane names is pre-determined and rotates every few years, so Caitlin may be used as a name in the future, but as of now, there hasn't been a hurricane Caitlin.
How does the size the eye of a hurricane effect the strength of it?
According to a study done a few years ago on data from 1980 to 1995, there is a weak correlation, if any, between the Radius of Maximum Winds (RMW) and Minimum Sea Level Pressure (MSLP). See the link below for the full study.
