Born over an ocean, and swift to hit land, a hurricane can cause terrible harm to both property and life with its driving rain and howling winds. Hundreds of miles wide and generating winds of 200 miles per hour, these forces of nature threaten many parts of the world. In this book the author takes the readers inside these storms, explaining how they are created, how scientists discover and track them, and how you can prepare for disaster.
