How fast does a hurricane move?

Answer 1

About 200 mph maximum.

Answer 2

By the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, a category one hurricane wind speed is 74 to 95 mph, a category two hurricane wind speed is 96 to 110 mph, a category three hurricane wind speed is 111 to 130 mph, a category four hurricane wind speed is 131 to 155 mph, a category five hurricane wind speed is >155 mph. so how fast do they move that will be 137mph.

Answer 3

For a hurricane to be classified as such, it must reach a wind speed of 74 miles per hour. That would make it a category 1. A category 5 is one with a minimum wind speed of 156 miles per hour.

Answer 4

They can be anywhere from nearly stationary up to more than 50mph in forward motion.

Answer 5

There is no set speed at which a hurricane can move. Hurricanes can reach speeds as high as 150 miles per hour or more.

Answer 6

Hurricanes can move forward at speeds ranging from 10 to 35 miles per hour (17 to 56 kilometers per hour), but some can move faster or slower depending on atmospheric conditions.
