Ethylene glycol has a sweet taste and is often accidentally or intentionally ingested. Ethylene glycol is chemically broken down in the body into toxic compounds. It and its toxic byproducts first affect the central nervous system (CNS), then the heart, and finally the kidneys.
The basic difference between a tropical storm and a hurricane lies in the intensity of the cyclone. â¢ If the wind speeds of the cyclone are greater than 39 mph, it is referred to as a tropical storm. â¢ When the wind speeds become greater than 73 mph, the same cyclone becomes a hurricane (or a typhoon). â¢ When the wind speed remains below 38 mph, the cyclone is referred to as a tropical depression only.
A tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating storm system characterized by a low-pressure center, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain. tropical storm is an organized system of strong thunderstorms with a defined surface circulation and maximum sustained winds between 34 knots (63 km/h) and 64 knots (119 km/h).
