The waves come and crash into the cliff or side of a hill. Then because of the force of the waves and the sudden change of texture from dry to wet the rocks and dirt brake away from each other causing erosion.

∙ 14y agoThe reason why waves get so high when hurricanes happen is because the high and dangerous winds. The wind cause the see level to rise and flooding acurs. To my caculations there has been hurricanes w/o flooding, but it is very rare...=)

Do hurricanes form waves?
Yes, hurricanes can produce very large waves.
Did Mississippi get hit by a tsunamis fron hurricane Katrina?
No. There were large waves, but waves produce by hurricanes and other storms, not matter how big, are not tsunamis. Tsunamis are a very different type of wave.
Can a hurricane form a tsunami?
No. Hurricanes generate large waves, but tsunamis are a completely different matter.
Is a hurricane a tsunami?
No. Hurricanes produce large waves, but these are not tsunamis. Tsunamis are the result of the movement of the ground underwater, such as with and earthquake, landslide, or volcanic eruption and have completely different dynamics from storm driven waves.
Do hurricanes have snow?
No. Hurricanes produce heavy rain but are to warm to produce snow.
Do hurricanes form waves?
Yes, hurricanes can produce very large waves.
Do tornadoes produce huge waves or storm surges?
No. Large waves and storm surges are a product of hurricanes.
What weather comes with hurricanes?
Hurricanes bring strong winds, large waves, torrential rain, and thunderstorms. These thunderstorms are sometimes severe, and can produce hail and tornadoes.

No. There were large waves, but waves produce by hurricanes and other storms, not matter how big, are not tsunamis. Tsunamis are a very different type of wave.
How do hurricanes change the weather?
Hurricanes are storms that bring very powerful wind, torrential rain, and large waves.
Is being in water safer than being on land when a hurricane comes?
No. Hurricanes produce large waves that can capsize boats. The safest place to be during a hurricane is on high ground.
Are the heavy waves that are caused by hurricanes called rip tides?
Hurricanes do produce rip tides, but rip tides are not waves. They are strong currents near the shore that take water and anyone caught in them out to sea.
Can a hurricane form a tsunami?
No. Hurricanes generate large waves, but tsunamis are a completely different matter.
Is a hurricane a tsunami?

What can produce many large ocean waves?
puppies
Why are hurricanes the most damaging of severe weather?
Hurricanes are the most destructive type of weather because they strike with a combination of powerful winds, flooding, and large waves all over a very large area. By comparison, tornadoes, which are the most violent weather event, can produce more severe damage but only on a very localized scale.
How can the energy of waves traveling through water affect a shorline?
wind that results from summer hurricanes and severe winter storms make large waves
