Hurricane Sandy's winds formed by the Sun heating air and that air convecting.
If the wind is blowing in you face, then the center of the hurricane is to your right.
Yes, a hurricane is an example of kinetic energy in the form of wind. As it moves across the ocean and land, the hurricane's wind carries significant energy that can cause damage and destruction.
easterly trade winds
There is little to no wind in the eye of a hurricane because all of the wind is circling around the eye of the hurricane. If there was wind in the middle of a hurricane, then it wouldn't really be a hurricane. It would just be a bunch of wind in one spot.
Wind shear is one of the most critical factors in controlling or even destroying hurricane formation, the more wind, the more powerful the hurricane. Conversely, if the wind is blowing in the opposite direction of the hurricane, it can slow it down or destroy it.

The minimum wind speed for a hurricane is 74 mph.

A hurricane is not made out of wind . . . a hurricane is made from warm air currents and air moisture, and creates highs winds.
A sustained wind speed of 103 mph would earn a hurricane a rating of category 2.

A hurricane is a "named storm". If you do not have a named storm exclusion then your wind coverage will cover hurricane damage.
Hurricane Rita reached maximum sustained wind speeds of 180 mph when it was classified as a Category 5 hurricane.
