Rapid Intensification

Rapid intensification is something that is a condition that happens when a hurricane increases wind speed by 30 knots or more in a 24 hour period. Such intensification causes storms to jump several categories in one day. The increase in wind speed is also coupled with a drop in pressure.The most fierce rapid intensification that occurs in the atlantic takes place in the Gulf Of Mexico.
