A hurricane is not made out of wind . . . a hurricane is made from warm air currents and air moisture, and creates highs winds.
There is little to no wind in the eye of a hurricane because all of the wind is circling around the eye of the hurricane. If there was wind in the middle of a hurricane, then it wouldn't really be a hurricane. It would just be a bunch of wind in one spot.
The minimum wind speed for a hurricane is 74 mph.
If the wind is blowing in you face, then the center of the hurricane is to your right.
Twister= spinning wind. Hurricane= lots of rain and unorganized wind.
75mphOnce a tropical storm has a wind speed of 74 mph it is officially a hurricane so 74 is the lowest wind speed for a hurricane.
Wind shear is one of the most critical factors in controlling or even destroying hurricane formation, the more wind, the more powerful the hurricane. Conversely, if the wind is blowing in the opposite direction of the hurricane, it can slow it down or destroy it.
It made landfall in the Bahamas, Florida (where Hurricane Andrew was at it's peak intensity), and New Orleans. These places were hit the hardest. Other places were skimmed by the very outer wind bands of Hurricane Andrew.
A hurricane is a "named storm". If you do not have a named storm exclusion then your wind coverage will cover hurricane damage.
