How did hurricanes form? Why do hurricanes bring so many disasters to the surrounding areas? In fact, a hurricane is what we often call a typhoon, but it is called differently in different places. This is a natural disaster, which refers to a tropical cyclone with a wind speed exceeding 33 meters per second. Because tornadoes usually appear with hurricanes, when there is a hurricane, it will bring great damage to coastal cities because of the extremely high wind speed. Generally speaking, buildings and houses are destroyed and nearby residents need to evacuate. In severe cases, it will cause casualties and huge economic losses.

What should we do when the hurricane comes? It should be carried out from three aspects: first, the government should immediately organize relevant departments to respond and publish countermeasures and policies in time; Secondly, for social organizations, we should vigorously coordinate all parties, organize forces to carry out rescue, cooperate with the government, and minimize losses; Finally, for ourselves, we should protect our own safety, stay at home in bad weather, pay attention to the weather forecast in time, plan our travel plans in advance, and minimize the losses.
