Hurricane Formation and Life Cycle What is a tropical cyclone? How are they identified? Describe the Saffir Simpson Scale? Watch the video https://goo.gl/QlFKT6 (If the link doesn’t work, call Ms. Tasneem over) It’s an ABC video by Ginger Zee Answer these questions: Where do hurricanes originate? How would you describe the pressure associated with these storms? Using the activities we’ve done in class why does this make sense? List the key ingredients for these cyclones to develop. Why do you think the eye is the calmest part of the hurricane? (Think about what the air is doing inside the eye) Why is the eyewall the most destructive part of a hurricane?
