The South is more vulnerable to hurricanes due to its geographic location along the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean, where these storms typically form and gain strength. The warm waters in these regions fuel hurricane development, while the flat coastal terrain allows storms to make landfall with greater impact. In contrast, the Midwest and Northeast are less prone to hurricanes, as they are located further inland and often experience cooler ocean temperatures that diminish storm intensity. Additionally, the prevailing weather patterns tend to steer hurricanes away from these northern regions.

Why is the south in more danger of hurricanes than the Midwest and northeast?
The South is more prone to hurricanes due to its warm ocean waters that provide the necessary energy for hurricanes to form and strengthen. The Midwest and Northeast are further inland, making them less susceptible to direct impacts from hurricanes, although they can still experience remnants of hurricanes in the form of heavy rain and strong winds. Additionally, the unique geography of the South, such as its low-lying coastal areas, increases its vulnerability to storm surges and flooding during hurricanes.
