Best Answer

Heating of the atmosphere, mainly by re-radiation from the earth, causes the winds. So yes.

Additionally evaporation from the water surface embodies an enormous amount of heat energy into the atmosphere due to the latent heat of evaporation, and when this is cools it can release this energy as cyclones and hurricanes.
