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. Know your evacuation level, identify
your evacuation route and Get a Plan!

National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's
