🔍 Key Concepts

• Structure of a tropical cyclone / hurricane – eye, eyewall, outer bands • Relationship between barometric pressure and storm center • How wind and sea state typically change as the eye passes over a fixed point

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to the wind and seas in the exact center of a well‑developed storm compared to the eyewall around it. • How does pressure in the eye compare to the surrounding areas of the storm – is it higher or lower? • If the eye is overhead, what kind of sky conditions and visibility are usually reported by ships and aircraft?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices correctly pair very low vs. high barometric pressure with the storm’s center (eye). • Check which options realistically describe sea state in the eye – would you still have huge breaking waves from all directions, or more of a temporary lull? • Consider whether heavy rain is more typical in the eye or in the eyewall/outer rain bands.
