The category of a hurricane is based on its wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has maximum sustained winds in the range of 74 to 95 miles per hour. A category 2 hurricanes has winds of 96 to 110 miles per hour.
The difference in maximum sustained wind speeds between a category 1 and category 2 hurricane is 15-25 mph. Category 1 hurricanes have maximum sustained winds of 74-95 mph, while category 2 hurricanes have maximum sustained winds of 96-110 mph.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. Category 2, 96-110 mph.
A category 1 hurricane in the weakest hurricane, with winds up to 95 mph. The strongest is a category 5 hurricane.
A category 5 hurricane has stronger winds at 157 mph or greater. Category 1 winds, by contrast, are 74-95 mph.
A category 1 hurricane is a hurricane with sustained winds in the range of 74 to 95 mph.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74 to 95 mph and is expected to cause mostly minor damage. A category 5 hurricane has winds of at least 156 mph and is expected to cause catastrophic damage.
Hurricane ratings are bases on maximum sustained wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. A category 5 hurricane has winds over 156 mph.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. Category 2, 96-110 mph.
A category 1 hurricane in the weakest hurricane, with winds up to 95 mph. The strongest is a category 5 hurricane.
A category 5 hurricane has stronger winds at 157 mph or greater. Category 1 winds, by contrast, are 74-95 mph.
A category 1 hurricane is a hurricane with sustained winds in the range of 74 to 95 mph.
The category of a hurricane is determined by wind speeds. A category 1 hurricane has winds of 74-95 mph. A category 2 : 96-110 mph. A category 3 : 111-130 mph A category 4 : 131-155 mph A category 5: over 155 mph.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74 to 95 mph and is expected to cause mostly minor damage. A category 5 hurricane has winds of at least 156 mph and is expected to cause catastrophic damage.
Yes. A category 3 hurricane has winds of 111-130 mph and a category 1 has winds of 74-95 mph.
The wind speed is 74-95 mph in a category one hurricane.
The categories of hurricanes are based on the maximum sustained wind speeds. They are: Category 1: 74-95 mph Category 2: 96-110 mph Category 3: 111-130 mph (beginning of a major hurricane) Category 4: 131-155 mph Category 5: 156+ mph
Each category has a wind speed range. If a hurricane has sustained winds in the range of a certain category, that's what category it is. Category 1: 74-95 mph Category 2: 96-110 mph Category 3: 111-130 mph Category 4: 131-155 mph Category 5: 156+ mph
Category 1: 74-95 mph Category 2: 96-110 mph Category 3: 111-130 mph Category 4: 131-155 mph Category 5: 156+ mph
