A tropical cyclone is a warm-core, low pressure system that
develops over the tropical or subtropical waters, and has an
organized circulation. In the Atlantic ocean, they are called
hurricanes.  

A hurricane combines
storm surge, powerful winds,
tornadoes and torrential rains into a devastating combination.  
Each year, an average of ten tropical storms develop over the
Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico. Three of
those tropical storms will strengthen to become a hurricane.

Look carefully at the safety actions associated with each type
of hurricane hazard and prepare your
family disaster plan
accordingly. Identify your threat
before a hurricane arrives.
