Hurricanes are formed when light winds with high levels of humidity flow over warm sea surfaces. If the water temperature is above 78 degrees Fahrenheit (26C), storm conditions can grow quickly.
Hurricane Sandy was first noticed on Oct 22, as a tropical wave in the western Caribbean Sea. She then picked up moisture from the warm waters while gaining strength. In six hours' time, she'd moved through tropical depression status to tropical storm status. Slowly moving northward and intensifying, she was upgraded to hurricane status on Oct 24.
