🔍 Key Concepts

• Structure of a hurricane (eye, eyewall, rainbands) • How wind speed and pressure change from the center outward • Relationship between updrafts, convection, and rainfall intensity

💭 Think About

• Think about which part of the hurricane has the steepest pressure gradient, since that usually creates the highest winds. • Which feature is associated with the most intense thunderstorms and vertical cloud development? • Compare how conditions in the center of the storm feel versus just around that center.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to the zone of maximum sustained winds in a hurricane. • Recall where heaviest convective rainfall and strongest updrafts typically occur. • Make sure you are not confusing the calm center with the surrounding severe area.
