Tri-state area (referring to areas affected by hurricanes)

A Tri-state area refers to a region where three neighboring states or areas converge, often experiencing shared weather patterns, such as hurricanes. When a hurricane threatens this zone, it can bring widespread impacts like strong winds, heavy rain, flooding, and storm surges. The term highlights the interconnectedness of these regions in weather response and disaster management. For example, the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut Tri-state area often collaborates on preparedness due to shared risks from hurricanes or storms approaching the Atlantic coast, emphasizing coordinated efforts across borders to protect residents and infrastructure.
