Detailed explanation-1: -Hurricanes usually weaken when they hit land, because they are no longer being fed by the energy from the warm ocean waters. However, they often move far inland, dumping many inches of rain and causing lots of wind damage before they die out completely.
Detailed explanation-2: -The most intense hurricane on record to hit the U.S. is the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935. It was a Category 5 storm that hit the Florida Keys and claimed 408 lives, most of whom were World War I veterans building roads as part of a federal relief project. A train sent to evacuate them was derailed by the powerful storm.
Detailed explanation-3: -Clear your yard. Make sure there’s nothing that could blow around during the storm and damage your home. Cover up windows and doors. Be ready to turn off your power. Fill clean water containers with drinking water. Check your carbon monoxide (CO) detector’s battery to prevent CO poisoning.
