"
Hotter temperatures in the air causes more moisture to be held onto, this leads to the storm absorbing this and becoming more powerful, generating much more rain to fall. ]]> 2023-04-01 16:46:11 UTC https://padlet.com/haileygrace72/1dsfyd6lg804s5zp/wish/2540721548 Sea levels rise from a larger storm. haileygrace72 https://padlet.com/haileygrace72/1dsfyd6lg804s5zp/wish/2540723895 Large storm surges are caused by the greater size of the hurricanes, causing the oceanwater to become much closer to roads and buildings. This results in extreme, more frequent flooding. ]]> 2023-04-01 16:49:54 UTC https://padlet.com/haileygrace72/1dsfyd6lg804s5zp/wish/2540723895 Citations haileygrace72 https://padlet.com/haileygrace72/1dsfyd6lg804s5zp/wish/2540731479 Kluger, Jeffrey, et al. “The Fragile Gulf.” TIME Magazine, vol. 166, no. 11, Sept. 2005, pp. 72–76.
