Hurricane Anatomy

1. Draw the parts of a hurricane:
      Eye
      Eye Wall
      Rain Bands

2. Show how air and water flow inside the storm.
      Where does warm air rise?
      What happens as the air cools?
      Where does water rise?
      Where does most of the water fall?

3. On the back add two details about each part of a hurricane.
