What is significant about the right-front quadrant of a hurricane?
it is usually the area having onshore winds. it is also usually in tandem with the forward motion of the storm.less friction from the water with onshore as opposed to offshore winds.
Which side of a hurricane has more rain?
When a hurricane is at sea, it can be fairly symmetrical. However, when a hurricane makes landfall, the side of the storm with onshore winds tends to have stronger winds and more rainfall. Typically, when the track of the storm is perpendicular to the shoreline, the onshore winds will be on the rightside of the storm track, since hurricanes circulate counterclockwise. The side with offshore winds draws in drier air from the land, so there is less rainfall on that side.
