Category 2 is a classification of hurricane intensity on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, which ranks hurricanes based on their sustained wind speeds. Specifically, a Category 2 hurricane has sustained winds ranging from 96 to 110 mph (154 to 177 km/h), causing significant damage to structures and the environment. This classification helps in understanding the potential impact and necessary preparations needed for safety during such storms.
