    Hurricane moving onto land rapidly loses its punch, and the storm declines in intensity due to two reasons:

    1. Lack of warm, moist air (a lack of moisture in the lower troposphere reduces the severity of a storm)

    2. Friction (I ncrease in surface friction as Hurricane moves onto land is known to be a factor for the decay of hurricanes).
