🔍 Key Concepts

• Hurricane structure – eye, eyewall, and outer bands • How wind direction and speed affect wave height and organization • Difference between wave height and wave regularity (order vs confusion)

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to wind speed and direction as you move from the destructive eyewall into the center (eye) of a hurricane. • Would seas be higher or lower where strong rotating winds are most intense around the center? • How would rapidly changing wind direction around the center affect whether waves line up neatly or become jumbled?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which answer choice best matches very high energy, chaotic sea conditions. • Identify which answer choice describes the sea state in a truly calm area with light or no wind. • Ask yourself: near (just around) the center versus inside the center (eye) – which of the options really fits the zone being described?
