Hurricane Irene Project

1. What effect does water temperature have on the creation a hurricane?
The sea surface temperature must be excess of 26c. The hot sea the stronger the hurricane will be, and       caused flooding and destruction. Hurricanes only happen in an area of the world that the climate is hot. Hurricanes need warm sea water feed it self and grow. 
2. Why would there be more damage to an area during high tide?
When the moon, sun and earth form a right angle, affect because water are strong that go out the oceans bands, causing flooding.
3. If an area is fully saturated, how will this be more dangerous for an area?
The water table is "above the grass.'' If this happen people will have flooding, plants will die, people will have water in their home.
4. Why would there be more flooding if the ground was fully saturated?
More flooding, when the ground is fully saturated because there is no where for the water to go.
