A hurricane is a very powerful storm, often a tropical storm, and with gusts of wind of more than 120 kilometres pr. hour

Tropical storms typically form over hot sea areas, the wind starts going around in circles, faster and faster, moving at great speed, also across land, potentially causing very severe damage.

How and why do we get hurricanes and what can you do in order to predict them? What sort of damage can a hurricane cause and what can we do to prevent it?

Keynote speakers dealing with hurricanes take a closer look at this rather stormy topic.
