    Hurricane Mitch was born 21 October 1998 in the warm waters near the equator. The sun heats the surface of the sea evaporating 1 trillion tons of water each day. Once in the air the water droplets cool transforming into clouds. Carried by the rising warm air, the clouds billow upwards. If the heat from the sea below is strong enough they turn into massive tropical storms. The storm spun towards Central America picking up vast amounts of water and increasing wind speed. On Thursday, October 29 1998, hurricane Mitch wreaked utter death and destruction over Central America. The favorable conditions rapidly strengthened Mitch to a category 5 status (sustained winds greater than 157 MPH) with the highest sustained winds at 180 MPH. Due to Hurricane…

    Everyone has morals in life. Weather learned from nature, family, or past experiences. Robert Frost is well known for using different themes to teach morals in his poems.

Frost specifically deals with the idea that life is no more than a series of relationships and choices, which are never simple to discern.…
