  declining, even though the population of coastal areas is growing? What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

Describe any relationships you see between the length of a hurricanes path
  and its intensity. What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

Improved forecasting technology provides a more thorough understanding of
hurricane behavior, which provides for better planning and longer evacuation lead
times. Improved communication and transportation systems allow for more effi cient
evacuation of residents in high-risk areas

Answer to Question 2

The length of a hurricanes path is proportional to its intensity . In general, the farther
the hurricane travels, the more powerful it becomes. However, the H4 and H5 hurricanes
traveled about the same distance.
