Yes. The five categories of the Saffir-Simpson scale are based on a hurricane's sustained wind speed. They are:
Category 1: 74-95 mph
Category 2: 96-110 mph
Category 3: 111-130 mph
Category 4: 131-155 mph
Category 5: 156+ mph
true
True. Category 5 hurricanes are classified as the most destructive on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, with sustained wind speeds of 157 mph or higher. They can cause catastrophic damage to buildings, infrastructure, and ecosystems, leading to significant loss of life and economic impact. The intense winds and storm surges associated with Category 5 hurricanes make them the most dangerous type of storm.
That is true.
true
Hurricanes are identified by sustained winds of at least 74 mph (119 km/h). They are further categorized based on their wind speed: Category 1 (74-95 mph), Category 2 (96-110 mph), Category 3 (111-129 mph), Category 4 (130-156 mph), and Category 5 (157 mph or higher). Satellite technology, aircraft reconnaissance, and ground-based weather stations are used to monitor and track hurricanes.

Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes. Both hurricanes and tornadoes can be deadly, although hurricanes are more likely to cause widespread destruction due to their larger size and duration. Both hurricanes and tornadoes have strong winds, but hurricanes typically have more sustained, powerful winds over a larger region.
