Hurricane Joaquin is picking up strength as it hits the Bahamas It is a Category 4 hurricane, meaning sustained winds from 130 mph to 156 mph The weather forecasting system that initially predicted it would hit the East Coast is now saying it will likely stay over the Atlantic Ocean But officials warn East Coast residents not to let their guard down The storm is expected to stay in the Caribbean until at least Friday morning

Hurricane winds are measured using the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane scale Hurricane winds are measured using the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane scale. This scale was first developed in the late 1960s and was further developed in the early 1970s. It uses measurements in pressure, wind speed, storm surge and damage potential to put hurricanes into 5 categories. http://eschooltoday.com/natural-disasters/hurricanes/measuring-hurricanes.html

Earthquake magnitude refers the strength of the earthquake measured at the epicenter http://www.charlesapple.com/uploads/2011/03/110312QuakeGraphicPhoenix.jpg

Focus-The location where the earthquake begins ( underground). Epicenter-The point on the Earth's surface located directly above the focus of an earthquake. Focus-The location where the earthquake begins ( underground). E Earthquake-A sudden ground motion or vibration produced by a rapid release of stored-up energy. http://geomaps.wr.usgs.gov/parks/deform/geqepifoc1.html F

Earthquake Monitoring Magnitude vs. Intensity http://earthquake. usgs Earthquake Monitoring  Magnitude vs. Intensity  http://earthquake.usgs.gov/learn/eqmonitoring/eq-mon-3.php  Intensity scales measure the amount of shaking at a particular location. Therefore, the intensity of an earthquake will vary depending on where you are. Sometimes earthquakes are referred to by the maximum intensity they produce.  Magnitude scales, like the Richter magnitude and moment magnitude, measure the size of the earthquake at its source. Thus, they do not depend on where the measurement of the earthquake is made. On the Richter scale, an increase of one unit of magnitude (for example, from 4.6 to 5.6) represents a 10-fold increase in wave amplitude on a seismogram or approximately a 30-fold increase in the energy released. Except in special circumstances, earthquakes below magnitude 2.5 are not generally felt by humans.  Often, several slightly different magnitudes are reported for an earthquake. This happens because different measurement procedures will often give slightly different magnitudes for the same earthquake.  The ShakeMap for the 1994 magnitude 6.7 Northridge, CA earthquake shows the epicenter at the location of the green star. The intensity of shaking created by the earthquake is shown by the different color gradients on the map – red is more intense shaking, yellow and blue are less intense. The magnitude of the earthquake is 6.7 no matter where you are, but the intensities vary by location.  http://tx.english-ch.com/teacher/reejay/level-b/topic-magnitude-and-intensity-on-earthquake/
