During storms, large, high-energy waves can erode the shore very quickly. These waves can break off large chunks of rock. Many of the features of shorelines are shaped by storm waves. Is this for your homework too?ha ha it's okay I don't mind. =D

What else can I help you with?

When may a storm not produced high-energy waves?

A storm may not produce high-energy waves when it is not accompanied by strong winds or when it does not have a significant fetch (distance over which wind can blow). Additionally, if the storm is not located in an area with a steep seabed, it may not generate high-energy waves.

What is a giant ocean wave caused by an earthquake or a severe storm?

A Tsunami, or tidal wave, or seismic sea wave may be caused by an earthquake. It is incorrect to refer to giant ocean waves caused by severe storms as tsunamis. Severe storms may cause giant ocean waves referred to as "Rogue Waves" - which are distinct from and NOT the same as Tsunamis.

All storms in the south have been pretty bad ever since the tornadoes on April 27 Why is it that the storms are worse then the storms before tornadoes?

Severe thunderstorms are what produce tornadoes. The same general conditions(warm mist air meeting cool dry air, wind shear, etc.) that can produce tornadoes can also lead to strong to severe thunderstorms, even if those storms don't produce tornadoes. Another factor may be psychological; after such devastating tornadoes people may be more aware of the severity of the storms that come through.


What kind of storm occurs on mars?

Mars has dust storms. The winds increase and the temperature drops. These storms can last for a month or more, and are quite common on Mars.


Does the moon effect the size of waves?

Yes, the moon's gravitational pull causes tides, which can influence the size and strength of waves. During high tide, waves may be larger and more powerful, whereas during low tide, waves may be smaller and gentler.


Does Jupiter have dust storms?

We do not think so. Jupiter is a GAS giant and while it may have a solid rocky core, this is probably covered in a sea of metallic hydrogen and thus there would be no dust to produce dust storms.


What does the weather statement A few Storms May Be severe Mean?

This means that there is a possibility for a small number of storms to become severe, indicating that some storms may produce strong winds, hail, or heavy rainfall. It is important to stay alert and informed by monitoring weather updates and taking necessary precautions to stay safe.


How much rain comes from a tornado?

A tornado itself does not produce rain, but it can accompany a tornado. The storms the produce tornadoes, called supercells typically produce very heavy rain, often enough to prompt flash flood warnings. This rain may stop before the tornado comes, or the tornado may be rain wrapped. Some storms however, called LP (low-precipitation) supercells produce little to no rain at all, but can still produce tornadoes.


How does Hawaii get such big waves?

Winter storms a long way from Hawaii. There are a few thousand miles of ocean to let the wind build up REALLY big waves before they strike the shallow water at the islands. In special times, the waves may be more than 40 feet tall.
