Worst Weather Conditions
1. Which weather events kill the most Americans?
I think Hurricane do because they last longer.
2. Which weather events kill the most people (in the world)?
Hurricane Katrina.
3. Are your answers to those two questions different? Why or why not?
No because Hurricanes to me is more dangerous and Hurricane Katrina was an example on how dangerous they can be.
4. Read this article. Do you agree or disagree? Why or why not?
Yes, I do because its basically common sense. You really can't tell how strong water is until you have experience it firsthand.
5. For your response to #1, find three weather events. Describe what happened (how severe was the storm, did anyone get hurt or die, how much property damage, include pictures, etc.).
Hurricane Katrina- one of the five deadliest hurricanes of all time, yes 100,000 of people died, over a million dollars is being payed for property damage.
India Tsunami- alot of people died, worset thing that has happen to India and the other countries.
