What makes a storm a hurricane? The dangers across 5 categories
Briefly

Hurricanes start as tropical waves fueled by warm ocean waters and thunderstorms, creating low pressure as warm air rises, forming storms and low pressure systems.
The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale categorizes storms from 1 to 5, with Category 1 being the weakest, and Category 3 or higher classified as major hurricanes.
