When a hurricane approaches land, tremendous damage can occur in the built environment. The amount of damage depends both on the intensity of the storm and what it hits. A combination of winds, storm surges, and rain cause great damage to buildings, power lines, roads, and automobiles.
Hurricanes are very fast and strong. They can cause severe flooding and rip apart almost anything in its path.
Hurricane damage is any kind of damage caused by the wind, rain and waves associated with a hurricane. Hurricanes can damage lots of things including houses, shopping malls etc.
it can cause loads of damage like homes destroyed,personal possession lost,crops destroyed and just things like that
Another answer:Along the coastline, there is the risk of flooding due to storm surge. In 2003, Hurricane Isabel caused an 8-foot storm surge in Annapolis and Baltimore. Winds are also most intense right along the coast. Farther inland, a hurricane tends to blow down fences, break tree branches and, in some cases, blow down whole trees. This causes lots of damage to the electric power distribution grid, which can take a long time to repair. For most people, who don't live near the coast, the biggest problem is likely to be a prolonged power outage. In 2008, Hurricane Ike knocked out power to 3 to 4 million households for one to two weeks. Ten days without electricity was typical.hurricans can damage towns/villages and wreck houses blow down trees plants eg. and can cause serious injuries.
