A hurricane is more likely to strike in May, when the oceans are warmer, than in March. But even in May hurricanes are unusual.
For Worcester, Massachusetts: On September 21, 1938, Worcester, Massachusetts was hit by the brutal New England Hurricane of 1938. On June 9, 1953 an F4 tornado hit Worcester, killing 94 people, though it was not related in any way to hurricane activity. The hurricane, also known as the Yankee Clipper or Long Island Express, was the first major hurricane to strike New England since 1869. It made landfall on Long Island as a category 3. In 2012 Hurricane Sandy did more property damage in terms of dollars, but the 1938 storm is still listed as the second costliest storm to strike New England.
No. The Galveston hurricane killed several times more people then Hurricane Katrina.
Yes, during an El Niño event, the Atlantic Ocean is more likely to have a higher number of hurricanes. This is because El Niño creates atmospheric conditions that are conducive to hurricane formation, such as weaker wind shear and warmer ocean temperatures.
A direct hit is almost impossible. Some wind and rain is a possibility but less likely. It is more likely Earl will pass far enough east to leave Connecticut unaffected.
A hurricane warning is more serious than a hurricane watch. A hurricane warning means that hurricane conditions are expected within a specified area, typically within 36 hours. A hurricane watch, on the other hand, means that hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area, usually within 48 hours.
A hurricane is more likely to impact a tropical coastal area. It would be impossible for one to strike in a polar region. Hurricanes form over warm ocean water.
Not even close. It only killed fewer than 1900 people - hurricanes in the developing world routinely kill that many and more.
Hurricanes are least likely to strike the areas that are inland, away from the ocean. Since hurricanes weaken quickly if they hit land, the chance of an actual hurricane hitting more than a couple hundred miles from the ocean is essentially zero.
It could, but it would be more likely to strike a metal part.
Yes, the hurricane engine is a likely upgrade of the gallardo engine.
Yes, its more likely as the humidity increases.
Earthquakes strike without warning. Hurricanes are usually detected well in advance of making landfall.
The oceans water is warmest at that time, and therefore more likely to create a hurricane.
Most likely, no. You can check the related for more information.
Such a thing is impossible to predict. However, it is likely that there will not be any more hurricanes this year.
Hurricanes are more likely to occur over warm ocean water, with warm, moist air and little to no wind shear.
I would rather be in a hurricane because it typically provides more advance warning and preparation time compared to a tornado which can strike suddenly and with little warning. Additionally, hurricanes tend to cover larger areas so there may be more options for finding safe shelter.
