Some lasers emit radiation in the form of light. Others emit radiation that is invisible to the eye, such as ultraviolet or infrared radiation. In general, laser radiation is not in itself harmful, and behaves much like ordinary light in its interaction with the body.
Hurricane Katrina is arguably the most notorious storm of the 21st century. The storm made landfall as a Category 5 near Miami before striking Louisiana as a Category 3 storm. Katrina was the third deadliest, and costliest hurricane in US history with more than 1,200 deaths and $108 billion in damage.
A âSuper Typhoonâ is the equivalent of a very strong category 4 or a category 5 Hurricane. Despite being the same as individual storms, there are also some important differences for the people living in these different regions. Because of the very large expanse of warm, tropical ocean in the western Pacific and other global atmospheric patterns, typhoons are more common than hurricanes. On average, there are 25 to 30 storms that rise to the status of a named typhoon every year, and only 6-10 that become named hurricanes. The likelihood of a storm gaining strength to become either kind of named storm depends in part on large-scale atmospheric patterns as well as ocean temperatures.
