When the temperature of the water under a hurricane heats up it adds much more power to the wind velocity, this makes for a much stronger and fiercer storm.

What does the size of a hailstone depend on?

It depends on how strong the updrafts in a thunderstorm are. The stronger these updrafts (winds), the larger the hailstone it can support. As long as the hail remains supported in the cloud, it will continue to accrete ice and grow larger.


How does a hurricane impact?

First of all, a hurricane is a very powerful storm with two main parts, the eye and the clouds around it. It can be several hundred miles wide. The eye is the calm area in the middle of the hurricane, and the wall of clouds is the place where you get the wind and rain at it's strongest and heaviest. Once in a while, a tropical thunderstorm grows and grows, becoming a giant hurricane. First, the storm grows a little bit. It then combines with other thunderstorms, and they all spin around an area of low pressure. This is called a tropical depression. Next, the storm grows some more. Its' winds become stronger and it becomes a tropical storm. Then, the storm grows even more, its' winds become even faster, and it becomes a hurricane. Hurricanes develop over oceans that are warm and tropical. The water vapor above the warm water's surface keeps the hurricane from weakening, making it grow and giving it energy. When a hurricane moves into areas with cooler ocean water, it weakens. It will also weaken if it travels over land. The heat, humidity, and certain wind conditions can make a hurricane. Hurricanes move in the same direction as the currents of the wind around them. The air of the hurricane spirals down toward the area of low pressure. It spins instead of moving in a straight line because Earth doesn't spin at the same speed everywhere; it spins quicker near the equator, and more slowly near the North and South Poles.

What is necessary for a tropical disturbance to grow into a hurricane?

A tropical disturbance has to go through 3 stages before becoming a hurricane. 1. Tropical Disturbance. This is formed from individual thunder storms coming together 2. Tropical Depression. This is caused when a Tropical Disturbance goes above 21 m.p.h. 3. Tropical Storm. This is caused when a Tropical Depression goes above 34 m.p.h. 4. Hurricane. This forms when winds become 74 m.p.h. or above. Hurricanes can go up to 206 m.p.h.


What happens if you continue to increase the intensity of light that plants receives?

If the plant has enough chloroplast to accept the light intensity, it'll continue to grow strong accordingly. It'll develop stronger leaves, stem, and darker in green color foliages. It'll reach a peak where light saturation occur when the plant no longer can grow any stronger even with higher light intensity. Increasing the light intensity further could hurt the plant.

How does the low pressure associtated with a hurricane help them grow big and powerful?

Air in the atmosphere tends to move toward low-pressure regions, which would increase the winds surrounding a hurricane. Air in the atmosphere moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. Air rushing toward a hurricane causes the hurricane to grow in size and strength.

What distinguishes a hurricane from a tropical storm?

While all are large storms of tropical nature, their official storm name has to do with its wind speeds. When the storms are in their infant stages as just a general area of low pressure that has the potential to strengthen, they're usually given the name "Tropical Depression" It doesn't get a name like "Betty" or "Donald" just yet, instead, it gets a sequential number, like "Tropical Depression 3." If the storm's peak winds become greater than 39 mph, then it's now a "tropical storm" and it gets a real name from the National Hurricane Center, like "Tropical Storm Barry." If the storm continues to grow and reaches wind speeds over 74 mph, it's then a hurricane, but it keeps its identifying name for continuity sake.
