Hurricanes pose significant risks to human life and infrastructure. Damage is not solely determined by wind speed but also by storm surge, flooding, and rainfall. These factors can lead to widespread destruction, including power outages, infrastructure collapse, and financial losses. The scale of damage depends on the storm's size, intensity, and the area it impacts. Understanding the conditions that lead to hurricane formation and intensification is crucial for forecasting and preparedness (EcoFlow, Source time: not specified).
