Can a hurricane create a fire?

Indirectly, yes. The damage from a hurricane can leave downed power lines and broken gas lines, and knock over stoves and other heat sources, potentially leading to fires. However, the heavy rain produced by a hurricane will generally supress fire during the storm's passage. Any fires that occur will likely break out in the aftermath.
