Warm and moist
The maritime tropical air mass forms over the Gulf of Mexico.
Maritime tropical: Warm and moist air mass that forms over tropical oceans. Continental tropical: Hot and dry air mass that forms over desert regions. Maritime polar: Cool and moist air mass that forms over ocean areas in higher latitudes. Continental polar: Cold and dry air mass that forms over polar regions. Arctic: Extremely cold and dry air mass that originates in the Arctic region.
Air masses with those characteristics are termed "maritime tropical".
Hurricanes are typically fueled by warm and moist air masses, such as the maritime tropical air mass that forms over tropical oceans. These air masses provide the necessary energy and moisture for the development and intensification of hurricanes.
The air mass indicated by moist warm air is a maritime tropical air mass. It originates over warm ocean waters and carries moisture and warmth with it as it moves over land.
The maritime tropical air mass is warm and humid.
Maritime tropical air masses, Maritime polar air masses, Continental polar air masses, or Continental tropical air masses.

Maritime Tropical (mT).
Maritime tropical: Warm and moist air mass that forms over tropical oceans. Continental tropical: Hot and dry air mass that forms over desert regions. Maritime polar: Cool and moist air mass that forms over ocean areas in higher latitudes. Continental polar: Cold and dry air mass that forms over polar regions. Arctic: Extremely cold and dry air mass that originates in the Arctic region.
The symbol for a maritime tropical air mass is "mT." This designation indicates that the air mass originates over warm ocean waters (maritime) and is characterized by high humidity and warm temperatures (tropical). Maritime tropical air masses typically influence weather patterns, bringing moist and warm conditions to regions they move into.
maritime polar, maritime tropical, continental polar, and continental tropical

mT (maritime tropical)
This is a maritime polar air mass<<<WRONG!!! IT IS A MARITIME TROPICAL AIR MASS!!
No. A maritime air mass is any air mass that originates over the ocean. A hurricanes is an intense tropical storm.
