One• One 74-95 mph No real damage to
building structures. Damage primarily to unanchored mobile homes, shrubbery, and trees. Also, some coastal road flooding and minor pier damage
![Page 19: Cyclone (hurricane –typhoon) sailing](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164aa550346895dd6a597/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Two• Two 96-110 mph Some roofing
material, door, and window damage to buildings. Considerable damage to vegetation, mobile homes, and piers. Coastal and low-lying escape routes flood 2-4 hours before arrival of center. Small craft in unprotected anchorages break moorings.

Three• Three 111-130 mph Some structural
damage to small residences and utility buildings with a minor amount of curtain wall failures. Mobile homes are destroyed. Flooding near the coast destroys smaller structures with larger structures damaged by floating debris. Terrain continuously lower than 5 feet Above Sea Level (ASL) may be flooded inland 8 miles or more.
![Page 23: Cyclone (hurricane –typhoon) sailing](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164aa550346895dd6a597/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Four• Four 131-155 mph More extensive
curtain wall failures with some complete roof structure failure on small residences. Major erosion of beach. Major damage to lower floors of structures near the shore. Terrain continuously lower than 10 feet ASL may be flooded requiring massive evacuation of residential areas inland as far as 6 miles

Five• Five greater than 155 mph Complete
roof failure on many residences and industrial buildings. Some complete building failures with small utility buildings blown over or away. Major damage to lower floors of all structures located less than 15 feet ASL and within 500 yards of the shoreline. Massive evacuation of residential areas on low ground within 5 to 10 miles of the shoreline may be required.

Storm Surge• Though people remember hurricanes for
their tempestuous winds and heavy rainfall, the most deadly aspect of these storms is what is known as Storm Surge. As these hurricanes move about in the ocean, their deep pressure core churns up the ocean and actually plows the water ahead of it. Normally in open water this resembles terribly rough seas, but it becomes an entirely different scenario when faced with a fixed land mass.
