The waters after a hypercane could remain hot enough for weeks, allowing more hypercanes to form. A hypercane's clouds would reach 30 to 40 km (20 to 25 mi) into the stratosphere. Such an intense storm would also damage the Earth's ozone layer, potentially having devastating consequences for life on Earth.
Now known as the "Tropical Cyclone Report". A report summarizing the life history and effects of an Atlantic or eastern Pacific tropical cyclone. It contains a summary of the cyclone life cycle and pertinent meteorological data, including the post-analysis best track (six-hourly positions and intensities) and other meteorological statistics.
The Non-tropical storms task force coordinates most of Wikipedia's coverage on extratropical cyclones, which tropical cyclones often transition into near the end of their lifespan. The Floods task force takes on the scope of flooding events all over the world, with rainfall from tropical cyclones a significant factor in many of them.
The hurricane strengthened further into a Category 4 hurricane. Beryl maintained an initial peak intensity with winds of 130 mph (215 km/h). [91] Beryl then underwent an eyewall replacement cycle and briefly weakened to a Category 3 hurricane early on July 1, [92] but regained Category 4 strength six hours later once the cycle was completed.

With maximum sustained winds of 215 mph (345 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 872 mbar (hPa; 25.75 inHg), Patricia is the most intense tropical cyclone ever observed in the Western Hemisphere. In terms of central pressure, it is also the second-most intense tropical cyclone ever recorded worldwide, just shy of Typhoon Tip in 1979 which had a ...
Fixed: 130 m/s is approximately 500 kilometers/hour, not 500 miles/hour. Winds could speculatively and conceivably get as fast as the latter, but the lower boundary (where the analytical hurricane solution falls apart and a numerical hypercane one starts to be needed, at least on paper) is the former. 142.104.60.203 02:50, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
At Malin Head in northwestern Ireland, a gust of 183 km/h (114 mph) was reported, which was the highest gust in a survey of post-tropical cyclones from 1960 to 2009. Sustained winds reached 126 km/h (78 mph) at the same location. [citation needed] The high winds caused heavy damage across Ireland, estimated at over $40 million (1961 USD). There ...
Hypercane, hypothetical extreme tropical cyclones that could reach the size of continents and last for several weeks on average. Hypercanes also would have maximum sustained winds reaching at least 500 miles per hour (800 km/h), and a minimum central pressure of 700 millibars (21 inHg) or lower.
