Labels for a hurricane diagram
After your first print, open Hurricane words in bubble letters. The storm's main parts are the Eye, a center of light winds and few clouds, the Eyewall, the ring of clouds round it, and the Rainbands. Storm / Surge is the rise in sea level a hurricane brings; Landfall is its center crossing a coastline. Eye of the / Storm makes a title.
From depression to Category 5
The weakest Tropical / Cyclone is a Tropical / Depression; it becomes a Tropical / Storm at winds of 39 miles per hour and a hurricane at 74. Category 1 starts there, Category 2 at 96, Category 3 at 111, Category 4 at 130 and Category 5 at 157. Hurricanes heads a unit.
- A storm's name on a second line keeps Hurricane at full size while the name is the narrower line; Hurricane / Season does the same.
- For a weather wall, Extreme / Weather heads Tornado, Blizzard, Thunderstorm, Flood and Drought; Natural / Disasters takes Earthquake too.
- In Fredoka, Eye prints about two and a half times as tall as Hurricane; Thunderstorm, twelve letters on one line, prints smallest.
