Hey all. i'm currently doing part 3/5 for a Geography essay which will be graded and will possibly go towards my end of year level. I was just wondering how hurricanes are predicted.

Also, part 4 is about immediate and long term effects of a hurricane, and part 5 is about effects in LEDCs (Less Economically Developed Countrys) and MEDCs (More Economically Develped Countrys). Any help with those is not needed, but would certainly be appreciated. Best answer worth, in fact.

Erm...well, Instead of saying immediate effects, you could say Primary effects. Sounds more professional :P
Hurricanes tear buildings apart blah blah.

They can be predicted with signs of violent winds, killer waves, torrential rains and flash flooding.
It's usually predicted for a hurricane 'season'
The specialists could look at the weather from the satelites in space with the amount of movement in the wind, and the weather. [I think]

I know the hurricanes are born over water and when it reaches land, it starts to loose power.
