Answer to Question 1

Answer: right-forward

Answer to Question 2

Answer: (i) damaging wind-the strong pressure gradient associated with the hurricane drives high winds that sometimes exceed 150 mph.
(ii) flooding-hurricanes typically bring tremendous rainfall amounts that occur over a prolonged time frame.
(iii) tornadoes-hurricanes are accompanied by strong vertical wind shear that promotes storm rotation and tornadoes.
(iv) storm surge-the wind action of the hurricane over the open ocean as well as the low sea level pressure combine to raise water levels as the storm makes landfall.
