The difference is in wind speed.
A category 2 hurricane has sustained winds in the range of 96-110 mph.
A category 4 hurricane has winds in the range of 130-156 mph.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74 to 95 mph and is expected to cause mostly minor damage. A category 5 hurricane has winds of at least 156 mph and is expected to cause catastrophic damage.
The main difference in wind strength between a category 2 and category 5 hurricane is the maximum sustained wind speed. A category 2 hurricane has wind speeds of 96-110 mph, while a category 5 hurricane has wind speeds of 157 mph or higher, making it much more intense and potentially destructive.
The category of a hurricane is based on its wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has maximum sustained winds in the range of 74 to 95 miles per hour. A category 2 hurricanes has winds of 96 to 110 miles per hour.
the category of the hurricane was when the hurricane came toresed us we all whent under ground to be safe in sound
A category 4 hurricane has sustained winds of 130 to 156 mph.
the difference is that the australian scale has no category
Hurricane ratings are bases on maximum sustained wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. A category 5 hurricane has winds over 156 mph.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74 to 95 mph and is expected to cause mostly minor damage. A category 5 hurricane has winds of at least 156 mph and is expected to cause catastrophic damage.

A category 4 hurricane has sustained winds of 130 to 156 mph.
The only difference between a hurricane, a cyclone, and a typhoon is the location where the storm occurs.
Hurricane names alternate between male and female. In the case of Hurricane Eunice, it would fall under the female category.
There is no given size. Hurricanes are rated based on wind speed, not size and there is no real curreclation between the strength of a hurricane and its size. A category 3 hurricane has sustained winds of 111 to 129 mph.
The maximum wind speed of a category 2 hurricane is 110 mph.
A hurricane is a "named storm". If you do not have a named storm exclusion then your wind coverage will cover hurricane damage.
