MAP

A Hurricane  Its a tropical cyclone with sustained winds that have reached speeds of 74 mph or higher.  These storms reach the status of "hurricane" only after strengthening over a period of days or even weeks.

Stages for a hurricane to be form:  Tropical Wave  Tropical Depression  Tropical Storm  Hurricane  Lks Lks

Periods  Although hurricanes can form as early as late May and continue into December in the Caribbean Sea or the Gulf of Mexico, the official Atlantic hurricane season starts June 1st and ends November 30th.

Consequences  Economic consequences include unemployment, loss of revenue, loss of foreign exchange, etc.  Social consequences consist of disruption of communities, death, ill health and homelessness, trauma and loss of lives.  Hurricanes bring intensely powerful and destructive winds ashore and are responsible for a range of weather impacts, from storm surge and flooding caused by heavy rains to tornadoes.

Articles  Article 1 tells that Haiti after suffering the devastating earthquake in 2010 has been struck again, but this time by hurricane sandy in Although the smallest part of the sandy reached Haiti the poor structure of houses and the poverty caused 54 deaths, and 200,000 homeless persons. Crops have been destroyed for Haiti citizens and although this was a small hurricane it had great impacts because of the large amount of rains that came after the hurricane.

Articles  Article 2 says that hurricane Karen was formed between Cuba and Mexico Yucatan peninsula. This hurricane stroke united states and produced heavy rainfall over portions of western Cuba and the northeastern Yucatan Peninsula. Karen was detected during EEUU government shutdown early this month and hurricane centers started to work again.
