Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale estimates potential property damage While all hurricanes produce life-threatening winds, hurricanes rated Category 3 and higher are known as major hurricanes*
Tropical Storm HELENE - National Hurricane Center The risk of impacts from life-threatening storm surge and damaging hurricane-force winds continues to increase along the coast of the Florida Panhandle and the Florida west coast Hurricane and Storm Surge Watches are in effect for much of that area and residents in those areas should follow advice given by local officials 3
The Inland Wind Model and the Maximum Envelope Of Winds Click on the values to display the Maximum Envelope of Wind for a specific hurricane strength (as measured by the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale) and forward motion of a typical hurricane
The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale Hurricane Andrew (1992) is an example of a hurricane that brought Category 5 winds and impacts to coastal portions of Cutler Ridge, Florida with Category 4 conditions experienced elsewhere in south Miami-Dade County
U. S. Hurricane Strikes by Decade - National Hurricane Center Note: The number and intensities of U S hurricane is underestimated here before 1901 because of the sparsely populated U S coastline, particularly along part of Florida, Louisiana, and Texas

Hurricane MILTON A Hurricane Warning means that hurricane conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area A warning is typically issued 36 hours before the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force winds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or dangerous Preparations to protect life and property should be rushed to completion
Hurricanes in History - National Hurricane Center Although Dennis re-intensified into a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 145 mph early on July 10 over the eastern Gulf of Mexico, it weakened to Category 3 strength before making landfall over the western Florida Panhandle near Navarre Beach late that day
Hurricane Milton Milton was one of the strongest hurricanes of record in the Atlantic basin, reaching category 5 intensity (on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale) with a minimum central pressure below 900 mb
Hurricane Matthew The mountainous terrain disrupted the hurricane’s low-level circulation, and Matthew’s sustained winds weakened to 115 kt by the time the category 4 hurricane moved through the Windward Passage and made landfall near Juaco, Cuba, around 0000 UTC 5 October (Fig 7d)
