The "weak" side of a hurricane is generally the left side relative to the storm's motion. This is because hurricanes in the northern hemisphere spin counterclockwise, so the storm's forward speed is subtracted by the wind speed. For example, if a hurricane is moving at 10mph and the eyewall is spinning at 80 mph, then the left side will experience 70 mph winds while the right side will experience 90 mph winds.
What else can I help you with?
How weak can a hurricane be?
A weak hurricane typically has sustained wind speeds between 74-95 mph, categorizing it as a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. While it may still cause damage, it is considered less severe compared to stronger hurricanes.
Will hurricane Ike hit Michigan?
It will, but it will be very weak by then, probably no more than a storm.
What side of a hurricane does more damage?
The right side of a hurricane typically causes more damage than the left side. This is due to the direction of the storm's movement and the rotation of the winds, which combine to create stronger winds and storm surge on the right side.
What is the name of the strongest side of the hurricane?
The strongest part of a hurricane is the eyewall. The strongest winds are usually on the right-hand side of the eyewall relative to the storm's motion.
Is the west side of a hurricane the worst?
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.
What is the wet side of a hurricane?
The wet side of a hurricane is the side where the most intense rainfall and strongest winds occur. This side is typically to the right of the storm's direction of movement in the Northern Hemisphere. Winds on the wet side of a hurricane blow from the ocean towards the land, bringing with them moisture that leads to heavy rainfall.
Can a small hurricane effect the community?
Yes. A small hurricane does not mean a weak hurricane. Hurricane Andrew, which was rather small as hurricanes go, hit Florida at category 5 strength, devastating parts of Miami.

Which side is the wet side of a hurricane?
The right side of a hurricane is typically the wet side, as it is where the fastest winds are located and where the storm's forward motion adds to the rainfall intensity.
How weak can a hurricane be?
A weak hurricane typically has sustained wind speeds between 74-95 mph, categorizing it as a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale. While it may still cause damage, it is considered less severe compared to stronger hurricanes.

What side of a hurricane does more damage?
The right side of a hurricane typically causes more damage than the left side. This is due to the direction of the storm's movement and the rotation of the winds, which combine to create stronger winds and storm surge on the right side.
Which side of a hurricane has the most rain?
The side of a hurricane that typically has the most rain is the front right quadrant. This area of the storm tends to have the strongest winds and the greatest amount of moisture, leading to heavier rainfall.
What does a weak play mean in football and does it mean the play is not as good like weak as in a weak counter?
A play is a "weak" play when it is run to the weak side of the field. This means that the play is run to the side of the field with less players. Usually weak plays are run to the side opposite the tight end in the standard football pro-style formation. If the formation is balanced meaning equal players on both sides of the football the weak side is considered to be the opposite side of the natural throwing motion of the quarterback.
What is the name of the strongest side of the hurricane?
The strongest part of a hurricane is the eyewall. The strongest winds are usually on the right-hand side of the eyewall relative to the storm's motion.
What big event happened on September12 1995?
12th September 1995: Hurricane Ismael was a weak Pacific hurricane that killed over one hundred people in Northern Mexico.
