Hurricanes are deadly acts of nature and they have been coming a lot lately do to the weather changing so much. We've had to shut down a lot of places like the companies that we get our gas from, oil companies, and many others. Hurricanes do some massive damage to our towns, cities, and our valleys, taking everything that gets in its way. They travel out to sea for miles, and it gets big as it keeps on going. Then it hits something and brings a whole lot of other things with it, too, such as high winds, massive amounts of water, and storms, too.
When it hits, homes and trees will be knocked down, ripped apart, or uprooted. Plants, cars, trucks, and other things will also be lifted up off of the ground and shredded to pieces. There will be mudslides and rivers of water in the streets. Gas, electric poles, oil, and dirt from the sewers in the water will get into your home, and it will not be safe for you to be in because you can get hurt from the objects or from the toxins and bacteria in the water as well. First there will be really bad winds that can tear apart your house and buildings in the area. It will throw debris everywhere. The wind will pick everything up and throw them through the air. Trees will be bowing and breaking, branches will be flying everywhere, and it can pick you right off your feet if you go out in it.
Then the flood will come and it is fast. It can put a city under water in just a matter of minutes. It can take the ground right out from your feet. It usually won't be a small piece either; it will be a very big piece of ground that the water will wash away as it is flowing by. Houses will tear apart and the foundation will go with it, too. You will see your house and everything you own go into the water, and you will never get it back. People can be hurt badly or killed because they didn't get to safety or they couldn't get to it in time. People try so hard to try to help other people so they can get out of harm's way, but some of them don't make it and a lot of them do. Do you see how bad they can get? Be careful when something like this happens in your area.
