"A hundred-knot hurricane's about the prettiest there is.  You get
 stronger than that, the water's all white.  You get below eighty
 knots, the streaks and ripples and blowing spray are less spectacular.
 But at a hundred knots, the sea has this kind of turquoise color and
 it's layered.  There's a filigree of foam on the surface, long streaks
 of glowing foam with long streaks of greenish bubbles beneath that,
 and between the disturbances there's a deep navy blue.  Anybody that's
 seen it wants to see it again."
 ----- Hugh Willoughby in _Inside the Hurricane_ by Pete Davies
