Do tropical storms blow towards or away from the EquatorWhy are they called 'tropical' storms?
Tropical storms generally move away from the equator, though the direction of travel varies. They are called tropical storms because the form in or near the tropics over warm ocean water and have tropical characteristics such as a warm core whereas extratropical systems (outside the tropics) generally have a cold core.
What types of storms form along a cold front?
mobe mobe mobe mobe mobe mobe not time to hit the bech!
How do snow storms form in the Appalachian Mountains or the Rocky Mountains Where do these storms get their moisture?
they get there moisture from the clouds and the storms form by lots of heavy snow
Does a cyclone cause a storm?
Many storms do arise from cyclones, but not all. In the tropics storms may simply form from disorganized convection, though this may occasionally turn into a cyclone. Outside the tropics most storm form along a frontal boundary, which is not always associated with a cyclone.
Does storms only form in water?
No, storms can form on land or sea. Hurricanes are one type of storm that only form in water.
Where do violent storms generally form?
They form along cold fronts.
Does violent storms form at an occluded front?
No. Violent storms most often form along or ahead of a cold front.
What type of fronts do violent storms usually form from?
Violent storms are often associated with cold fronts.
What type of front can create violent thunder storms and even tornadoes?
Cold fronts are most often associated with severe thunderstorms and tornadoes, but such storms can form along warm fronts, stationary fronts, and dry lines.

Why Florida does not have violent tornadoes?
Florida has actually had two violent F4 tornadoes in the past 60 years, but the reason such strong tornadoes are so rare has to do with the climate. Tornadoes form in very strong thunderstorms called supercells, which form best near boundaries with large contrasts in temperature and/or moisture content. In Florida, which is nearly tropical, the temperature contrasts tend to be small, and so the storms are generally not intense enough to produce strong tornadoes.
