Not necessarily. Generally the right side of a hurricane is worst. Since hurricanes spin counterclockwise the wind speed on the right side of the hurricane is equal to the speed the hurricane is spinning plus its forward speed. So if a hurricane is spinning at 90 mph and traveling at 10 mph, areas on the right side of the storm would experience 100 mph winds. The stronger winds also lead to a higher storm surge. Because of this the west side of a hurricane would be worst if it were traveling south. If the storm is traveling north, which is somewhat more common, then the east side is worse.

If a hurricane or other tropical cyclone is moving the winds on one side will be faster than on the opposite side in relation to the ocean or ground the storm is moving over.
