“People evacuate from their homes and go someplace else and come

back when the hurricane is over.”

“If there was a very strong hurricane, a house could get taken up

by the hurricane, and they’d have to evacuate and go someplace else

in a hotel.”

JACK GAIL, 8

“I learned about the names. One in Texas was the most terrifying

and biggest. Andrew was little but destroyed a lot of things.”

TINA SINGH, 7

“They become tropical storms, and they can become Category 5

hurricanes and give lots of damage to places.”
