If the wind changes direction with height it creates more friction, drag and chaos that impedes the development of the storm. Great question!

Why do only certain areas in larger area experience stronger winds than other areas in the same large area? In layman terms, without all the bit about different air pressure masses and all. Why is it windy in a small area of a neighborhood?

Tough to answer without more information. Buildings can funnel air sometimes, making the air move faster.

Asked by Louie over 6 years ago

Great question, Louie. If you do a Google Image search for landfalling Florida hurricanes you'll let a lot of information. Here is a Wikipedia page that has great information. Just know that the speed and angle of approach makes a difference. For example a hurricane hitting Miami moving from east to west is a different outcome than one moving south to north. You might also poke around on the website for the National Hurricane Center. Happy retirement! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Florida_hurricanes and https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/
