Introduction:
Hurricanes are one of the natural phenomena that occur in the environment. The time period in which the development of severe hurricanes is more frequent is called hurricane season. Everyear, the hurricane season starts from June 1 and lasts till November 30. This season is at its peak in the month of August.
