Why is the eye the safest part of a hurricane?

Answer 1

There is no wind and usually very little rain in the eye, the centre of a cyclone. The winds rotate around the outside, and within these rotations they also swirl vertically, but there is no wind in the eye.

Answer 2

As air spirals toward the center of a hurricane it accelerates. By the time it reaches the eye wall, the strongest part of the storm, it is spinning too fast to penetrate further in. This creates an area of calming sinking air in the center of the storm. However, there is no way that the area inside the eye will avoid the devastating effects of the hurricane once the opposite wall of the eye passes over it, however, an aircraft may safely remain inside the moving eye of a hurricane.

Answer 3

The eye of a hurricane is the safest part because it is a region of low pressure and calm winds. This area is surrounded by the most intense winds and storms of the hurricane, which are in the eyewall.

Answer 4

No, it is the least dangerous of the hurricane!!

Answer 5

No, the eye of the hurricane is not the most dangerous part. Actually, the eye of the hurricane is the calmest part, with virtually no winds and nothing really happening.

Answer 6

While the eye is the weakest part of the hurricane and could do very little damage to you, the walls would completely rip you apart from the force they release. So the eye is not safe.

Answer 7

yes
