What are the conditions to a hurricane to form?

Answer 1

Conditions necessary for a hurricane/tropical cyclone formation: - sea surface temperatures of over 26.5C/80F for about 60m deep - low pressure (that's why they are found only at 5~20 degrees north and south of equator)

Answer 2

First, the ocean waters must be warm enough at the surface to put enough heat and moisture into the overlying atmosphere to provide the potential fuel for the thermodynamic engine that a hurricane becomes. Second, atmospheric moisture from sea water evaporation must combine with that heat and energy to form the powerful engine needed to propel a hurricane. Third, a wind pattern must be near the ocean surface to spirals air inward.

Answer 3

The birth of a hurricane requires at least three conditions. First, the ocean waters must be warm enough at the surface to put enough heat and moisture into the overlying atmosphere to provide the potential fuel for the thermodynamic engine that a hurricane becomes. Second, atmospheric moisture from sea water evaporation must combine with that heat and energy to form the powerful engine needed to propel a hurricane. Third, a wind pattern must be near the ocean surface to spirals air inward. Bands of thunderstorms form, allowing the air to warm further and rise higher into the atmosphere. If the winds at these higher levels are relatively light, this structure can remain intact and grow stronger: the beginnings of a hurricane!

Answer 4

Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters (typically above 80°F) with enough moisture and instability in the atmosphere. They also require light wind shear (changes in wind direction or speed with altitude) to allow for vertical development of thunderstorms. The Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, is necessary for the rotation of a developing storm system into a hurricane.

Answer 5

warm water is one of them.
