Hurricane Irene project

 Critical Thinking:


1. What effect does water temperature have on the creation a hurricane?
The water temperature change to warm water in the ocean.

2. Why would there be more damage to an area during high tide?
Because with the high tides the precipitation can get higher and can make floods and ground water, that will causes more damages in the environment.


3. If an area is fully saturated, how will this be more dangerous for an area?
This will be more dangerous because the water will become stagnant in that place and many people can die with the big flooding that will cause.


4. Why would there be more flooding if the ground was fully saturated?
Because the water will be become stagnant in that area and will cause a big flood.
