<h2>Answer: Wind speed </h2>

The Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale is based on a table that classifies tropical cyclones into five levels according to wind speed and intensity, taking into account the possible damage to buildings to determine this intensity.

This scale was developed in 1969 by the civil engineer Herbert Saffir and Robert Simpson, who was the director of the National Center of Hurricanes of the United States at the moment.

However, this scale does not take into account the amount of precipitation (rain) or the location of the winds.
