Where are the strongest winds in a tropical storm?
Near the center, at the “eyewall” in a typhoon or hurricane.
Hurricanes, cyclones and typhoons are all names for tropical storms. The impact is usually measured in terms of the highest velocity sustainable winds, which are different from the “strongest” winds at a particular location in the overall storm system.
Due to the centripetal forces involved in creating cyclonic storms, the highest wind velocities are in the eyewall, reducing in velocity as they move further away.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
