Hurricane Florence is a destructive tropical cyclone in the Atlantic Ocean intimidating the southeastern states of the United States and Mid-Atlantic States. It is the first big hurricane in the season of 2018 in the Atlantic Ocean. It emerged from a forceful tropical wave off the west coast of Africa and its steady movement indulged in the formation of a tropical depression near Cape Verde. It acquired strength in progressing towards northwest trajectory and after a variable strength over the open ocean and after rapid intensification, it converted into a major hurricane.

As per sources, necessary evacuation has already been in place around the region by the authorities. The hurricane is expected to grow stronger as announced by the National Hurricane Center. Meteorologists have expressed concern since the hurricane appearing to be very harmful. Hot water fuels the power of a hurricane and the temperature drops as you move up. But it is unbecoming of the hurricane Florence as it is growing with more power and is expected to cause severe rain over Carolinas and the Mid-Atlantic region.
