Why are hurricanes considered wicked weather?

     A hurricane is a storm system characterized by a large low-pressure center and a lot of thunderstorms that produce strong winds and heavy rain. Hurricanes are also referred to as "tropical cyclones". Hurricanes get stronger when water evaporated from the ocean is released as the saturated air rises.


     The different sizes of hurricanes are:

• Less than 2 degrees latitude. Which is very small/midget.
• 2 to 3 degrees latitude. Which is small.
• 3 to 6 degrees latitude. Which is medium/average.
• 6 to 8 degrees latitude. Which is large anti-dwarf.
• Over 8 degrees latitude. Which is very large.
