Other topics covered include, What is a Hurricane?, as seen in the illustration above. There is a little green suitcase that opens up to reveal important items to have in a survival kit, all the elements that go into making a hurricane and examples of more extreme weather. How Can We Predict the Weather, as seen below, has a very cool flap that, on the top, shows ways that we used to predict the weather that are not as kooky as you might think. Under the flap there is a list of discoveries and inventions that have helped to understand and predict weather.
