What storm forms over oceans?

Cyclonic storms, which may be called hurricanes, typhoons, or cyclones.


What are hurricanes in the western part of pacific ocean known as?

They are called by the name "Typhoons". Until they are mature, they are cyclonic storms


Which storms feature strong cyclonic winds spinning counterclockwise?

A number of storms in the northern hemisphere have such characteristics including tropical cyclones (hurricanes an typhoons), some extratropical cyclones, and most tornadoes (on rare occasions they are anticyclonic).


How do the ocean currents influence the route of the cyclonic storms?

When there are warm currents over large surfaces of water, low presuure conditions are created that attract cyclones. This influences the route of the cyclonic storms.


A counterclockwise atmospheric circulation in the northern hemisphere is known as what?

A cyclone, or cyclonic storm. These are low pressure systems that include tropical storms and hurricanes.


What are the three names for tropical storms that reach over 74 mph?

In the Atlantic and eastern Pacific they north of the equator are called hurricanes. In the western Pacific north of the equator they are called typhoons. In the northern Indian Ocean they are called very severe cyclonic storms.


Are tornadoes cyclonic?

Most tornadoes are cyclonic, meaning they rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere. However, a very small percentage of tornadoes are anticyclonic, rotating in the opposite direction.


What is the difference between stroam and cyclone?

A cyclone is a large scale low pressure system with a closed circulation, and cyclonic rotation. Most storms are small to middle scale systems and do not rotate.


What is a non cyclonic storm?

A non-cyclonic storm, also known as a convective storm, is a type of severe weather event that does not have the rotating circulation characteristic of cyclones or hurricanes. Non-cyclonic storms can include thunderstorms, hailstorms, and tornadoes that form due to strong convective activity in the atmosphere. These storms can still be very powerful and produce damaging winds, heavy rainfall, and lightning.


Tornadoes and hurricanes are examples of?

Tornadoes and hurricanes are both examples of severe weather phenomena known as cyclones. Tornadoes are characterized by strong rotating winds that form from thunderstorms, while hurricanes are large tropical cyclones with low-pressure centers that develop over warm ocean waters.


Which phenomena can occur when very warm and humid air is rising over a mass of a very cold air?

Intense Rain and Hail which may lead to storms and cyclonic storms.
