Worst Weather Events

1. Which weather events kill the most Americans? hurricanes

2. Which weather events kill the most people (in the world)? I think hurricanes because it kills a lot of people.

3. Are your answers to those two questions different? Why or why not? Because of the water will be able to kill a lot
4.Do you agree or disagree? Why or why not? no because of i feel flooding is not as bad but of you count it as in a hurricanes then yes

1.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.). 1928 Okeechobee hurricane killed at least 4,078 people and caused around $100 million ($1 billion 2008 US dollars) in damages over the course of its path it was a It was the first recorded hurricane to reach Category 5 status on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale in the Atlantic basin; as of 2008, it remained the only recorded hurricane to strike Puerto Rico at Category 5 strength, and one of the ten most intense ever recorded to make landfall in the United States.

What are the four main sciences in Earth Science?

The 4 main earth science are astronomy, oceanography, geology and meteorology

I love the oceanorgraphy so i think that is my fav....

I think that I will get an A or B because I will work hard to get a good grade. I love to work on fun things but when it comes down to it I will work hard. I love to joke around but I will get the job done. Last year I did well although my class was bad so I think I will do well. I love most science and i'm very knowledgeable. Also I have a cheat book HaHaHaHaHa.
