In the summer what type of afternoon weather would you expect from an air mass designated as mT?

in summer it can cover much of the US east of the Rockies. This air mass results from the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Gulf Stream. The warm waters in this region evaporate an enormous volume of water. Cold water currents tend to stabilize the atmosphere and produce little evaporation while warm waters destabilize the atmosphere and add moisture. The warm waters warm the low levels of the atmosphere.

When hurricanes have everythingthey need to form how come they stop?

Its like adding fuel to a fire and then stopping. When a hurricane forms, it is generally over the tropical warm waters from where it gets its energy. As these waters evaporate they give a storm energy and mass in the way of water vapor and clouds. The more the evaporation, the greater the storm. As the storm moves to cooler water temperatures, it gets less fuel from the sea and will lessen in strength. If it passes over land, it loses all of its power and quickly becomea a tropical depression or just a thunderstorm.


Do hurricanes form over water that is 80 degrees Fahrenheit or less?
