General Navigation USCG Question #707 (Set 23)

Which condition exists in the eye of a hurricane?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — An extremely low barometric pressure

The eye of a hurricane is the area of lowest pressure and relative calm. While the surrounding eyewall contains the most intense winds and precipitation, the eye itself is characterized by light winds, clearing skies, and significantly lower barometric pressure compared to the surrounding storm environment.
