Question

using the data above from hurricane felipe ii that hit san juan, puerto rico in 1928, answer the following question.
based on all the given data, when do you think the eye of the hurricane passed over san juan?
a sept 13, 12am
b sept 13, 6am
c sept 13, 9am
d sept 13, 12pm
e sept 13, 3pm
f sept 13, 6pm
g sept 14, 12am

Explanation:

To determine when the hurricane eye passed, we analyze hurricane eye characteristics: wind speed drops (calm/very low) and pressure reaches a minimum (barometric pressure trough). From the graph, the time with these conditions (low wind, pressure dip) aligns with Sept 13, 9am (Option C). Wind speed likely decreases, and pressure is lowest around this time, matching hurricane eye passage (eye has calm winds, lowest pressure).

Answer:

C. Sept 13, 9am
