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.

What does a fault have to do with plate motion,
kaheart [24]

Answer:

A fault is formed in the Earth's crust as a brittle response to stress. Generally, the movement of the tectonic plates provides the stress, and rocks at the surface break in response to this. Faults have no particular length scale. If you whack a hand-sample-sized piece of rock with a hammer, the cracks and breakages you make are faults. At the other end of the spectrum, some plate-boundary faults are thousands of kilometers in length.

and summer months

Explanation:

A biome may be defined as that community of plants as well as animals that have a common characteristics in the surrounding or the environment in which they live. They are the biological communities formed as a result of the physical climate they share.

The Arctic biome of the earth is located above the 66° north latitude. This region is home to various low growing plants and herbs. They only flourish in the spring seasons and the summer months. This is because this biome receives maximum amount of solar energy during the summer and the spring months. Rest of the year is covered with snow.
