What we think we know about hurricanes predictability.

The evidence and findings stated here forth is based on true fact-not fiction.

Human kind present dependency on fossil fuels and dredging of our oceans for oil has changed the landscape of our frail environment.

What is a Hurricane? A severe tropical cy-clone originating in the equatorial regions of the Atlantic Ocean or Caribbean Sea, traveling north, northwest, or northeast from its point of origin, and usually involving heavy rains. A wind with a speed of 74 miles (119 kilometers) per hour, according to the Beaufort scale. Something resembling a hurricane in force or speed.

In the last twenty years-the persistent nature of more violent storms is ever present. The 21st century has bared unprecedented documentation and evidence of new super and powerful devastating hurricanes.

The more recent powerful storms have been noted from 1996-1997-1998 and 1999-this can be called the violent period of our introduction to the new super-storms.
The study of hurricane activity in this century has changed our compromising landscape.
These storms have brought about new found education from expert study; there is no more room for skeptical revision of the facts that are so clearly available from many sources. There is no denial that we must work towards better design in construction of building structures and re-think about building less on the coastline areas.

If our nation can begin to understand and realize the magnitude of damage that buildings endure in relation to hurricanes volatility-architects, engineers and structural designers will need to improve safety as a priority.

Within our present technology and science we can prevail and prepare to create safe-houses for evacuees in need of shelter when a violent storm is prevalent.

There have been many pioneers of science and storm technology have suggested underground bunkers be mandatory in all cities that are susceptible to hurricanes.

The trepidation of global warming has spawned a new type of storm; climatologist could often predict the cause of most hurricanes. Now there is something new and alarming about the once predictable warm-air that can give a hurricane its strength.

Climate change has made the earth warmer than ever-this chemistry has without a doubt spawned erratic hurricane behavior-we
