单选题

Predicting the path of a hurricane is one of the most difficult tasks for forecasters. It moves at a typical speed of 15 mph. But not always. Some storms may race at twice this speed， then suddenly stop and remain in the same location for several days. It can be maddening if you live in a coastal area that may be hit.
