Hurricanes

Tropical storms with strong winds. They start at sea, and can travel a long distance. They have different names in different places: ‘hurricanes’ in the Atlantic Ocean, ‘typhoons’ in the Pacific Ocean, ‘tropical cyclones’ in the Indian Ocean and around Australia.

Tornadoes, or whirlwinds, are similar, but begin over land.

The water evaporates from the warm sea. This condenses in the atmosphere. More and more hot, wet air rises up. It becomes a strong wind.

Over the warm parts of oceans. Tornadoes are common in parts of the U.S.A, Australia, and Japan.

They can affect ships, blow down houses, cause floods and disrupt traffic.

Scientists can usually track hurricanes, but they cannot stop them.

Floods

The water in rivers, lakes or the ocean rises above its normal level and goes onto the land.

If there is a lot of rain, or very strong winds, floods can happen.

Some rivers in Bangladesh and India flood every year. People expect it, so there is no panic. When the floods go down, there are lots of minerals in the soil. They can grow good plants.

When the floods are a surprise, many people can drown. Every year, people lose their houses and their furniture. When floods happen every year, some people are ready for them. But many people (and governments) do not prepare properly.

Dams can reduce floods - but some dams can cause them! There are often ‘flood warnings’ on the radio.
