Tropical Storms and Hurricanes

Tropical Cyclones tropical cyclones thrive on the tremendous amount of energy in warm, tropical oceans many of them start over the ITCZ the Coriolis Effect causes them to turn counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere as the moving air approaches the center of the growing storm, it rises, rotates faster and increases in speed

Formation of Tropical Cyclones Needs 2 things Abundant supply of warm water Warm air rising

Stages of Tropical Cyclones Tropical Disturbance Tropical Depression Tropical Storm Hurricane
