Why is landfall marked and counted down to when the eye of the hurricane hits, when it seems all the damaging parts are not the eye at all?
In: Other
It’s a definable, somewhat-definite part of a hurricane. Which part other than that should we pick to track where the hurricane is as a point on a map? The kinda-sorta side that’s rotating and growing/shrinky constantly is hard to track… and where is that exactly? When you’re near the approaching hurricane and it’s clouds as far as the eye can see, and in one direction it just gets more windy and rainy: where does the surrounding stop and the hurricane start?
