Hurricanes Approaching US

A hurricane is a type of cyclone, which forms over tropical or subtropical waters. A tropical cyclone is a rotating low-pressure weather system that has organized thunderstorms. Tropical cyclones with maximum sustained surface winds of less than 39 miles per hour are called tropical depressions. Those with maximum sustained winds of 39 mph or higher are called tropical storms. When a storm's maximum winds reach 74 mph, it is called a hurricane. https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutsshws.php
