 Explanation: Should you be worried about hurricanes?  To find out, it is useful to know where hurricanes have gone in the past. The Earth map shows the path of every hurricane reported since  Although striking, a growing incompleteness exists in the data the further one looks back in time.  The map graphically indicates that hurricanes - sometimes called cyclones or typhoons depending on where they form -- usually occur over water, which makes sense since evaporating warm water gives them energy.  The map also shows that hurricanes never cross - or even occur very near - the Earth's equator, since the Coriolis effect goes to zero there, and hurricanes need the Coriolis force to circulate.  The Coriolis force also causes hurricane paths to arc away from the equator.  Although incompleteness fogs long term trends and the prevalence of hurricanes remains a topic of research, evidence is accumulating that hurricanes are, on the average, more common and more powerful in the North Atlantic Ocean over the past 20 years.
