Tropical Cyclones
I learned that a tropical cyclone is a storm system characterized by a low-pressure center and numerous thunderstorms that produce strong winds and heavy rain. Tropical cyclones strengthen when water evaporated from the ocean is released as the saturated air rises, resulting in condensation of water vapor contained in the moist air.The eye is normally circular in shape, and is typically 30–65 km in diameter.
The main effects of tropical cyclones include heavy rain, strong wind, large storm surges at landfall, and tornadoes. The destruction from a tropical cyclone depends mainly on its intensity, its size, and its location.After the cyclone has passed, devastation often continues. Standing water can cause the spread of disease, and transportation or communications infrastructure may have been destroyed, hampering clean-up and rescue efforts.

I want to know more about the most dangerous effect of a tropical cyclone and the biggest property damage caused by this weather system.
I would like to research on the accuracy of weather monitors on monitoring this weather system and how it is being monitored.
I appreciate the fact that some scientists still do not perfectly understand this natural phenomenon due to lack of some very accurate monitoring technologies.
I can apply my learnings and insights on helping others to be prepared in times of occurrence of these weather system.
