TEXT 6 (QUESTIONS 24-26)
Hurricanes generally occur in the North Atlantic from May
through November, with the pack of the hurricane season in
September, only rarely will they occur from December
through April in that part of the ocean. The main reason for
the occurrence of hurricane during this period is that the
temperature on the water surface is at its warmest and the
humidity of the air is at its highest.
Of the tropical storms that occur each year in the North
Atlantic, only about five, on the average, are powerful
enough to be called hurricanes. To be classified as a
hurricane, a tropical storm must have winds reaching speed
of at least 117 kilometers per hour, but the winds are often
much stronger than that; the winds of intense hurricanes can
easily surpass 240 kilometers per hour.
