Where do hurricanes typically form over?
Hurricanes typically form over warm ocean waters near the equator. The majority of hurricanes originate in the Atlantic Ocean, particularly in the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. They can also form in the Pacific Ocean, primarily in the region near Southeast Asia and the western coast of North and South America.
Are hurricanes are the most common in the middle continent?
No. Hurricanes cannot occur in the middle of a continent. A hurricane can only form over warm ocean water and will rapidly lose strength if it hits a major landmass.
What cities do hurricanes form in?

Do tornadoes and hurricanes form over gulf coast waters?
Generally not. Hurricanes usually form far out at sea, and usually don't form in coastal waters as it can limit the supply of moisture that they need. Although hurricanes can form in the Gulf of Mexico it is more common for them to form elsewhere in the Atlantic and then move into the Gulf. Tornadoes don't need to form in coastal areas. In fact they can form almost anywhere. In the United States storm systems pull warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico. This air fuels the storms that spawn tornadoes, but this air can be transported hundreds of miles away from the Gulf before it these thunderstorms develop.

Would you expect hurricanes to form over the oceans off the northeast or northwest coasts of the US Explain?
Hurricanes typically form over the warm tropical waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and the Caribbean Sea. Consequently, it is more likely to see hurricanes forming off the northeast coast of the United States since this region is closer to the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf Stream, which carry warm water. On the other hand, the northwest coast of the US, such as Washington and Oregon, is not exposed to the warm tropical waters, making it less likely for hurricanes to form in that region.
