1. Why is it important to accurately predict the possible formation and path of a hurricane?

4. How does the amount of wind affect hurricane formation?

5. You record the sea temperature at 12¡N 45¡W to be 27.5¡C, the humidity to be very high, and a very light breeze. Do you expect a hurricane to form in these conditions? Explain why or why not.

I WILL GIVE YOU A LOT OF MEDALS JUST PLZ HELP!!!

1) Prediction of a hurricane's path/formation can save lives, since we can predict the strength, then warn the people who are in danger of it's reach.

4) The more wind a hurricane has, usually the faster it tears apart, since the strong winds acts to constrict the center, limiting and sometimes altogether stopping the hurricane.

5) I'd say yes, since the humidity is really high, so the wind can whip that up into the heat, then the hot air descends to create a vortex.
