The Pace Of Hurricanes Is Slowing, And That's Bad News
- 6 years ago
The pace at which hurricanes move across the planet is slowing, according to new research. Last summer Hurricane Harvey stalled over Texas and this may not have been an anomaly. Gizmodo reports that highly destructive, slow-moving tropical storms are becoming more common. Harvey dumped more than 50 inches of rain on Houston and its surrounding areas in the five days it spent hovering over the area. Some places received as much as two feet of rain in two days.
