Hurricanes are predicted using a Saffir-Simpson Scale. This scale is used to measure the intensity of hurricane most often than not. However, it may be used to identify a hurricane as well. A hurricane is categorised based on the wind speeds.  

74 - 95 mph --> category 1 
96 -110 mph --> category 2 
111 - 129 mph --> category 3 
130 - 156 mph --> category 4 
157 mph + --> category 5 

Typically, the formation of a hurricane occurs when moist warm air if absorbed from the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean and rises. The moisture will then evaporate further rising and heating until the moist air is twisted and circulation high in the atmosphere.
