What else can I help you with?
What phenomenon is responsible for the rotation of large cyclones such as hurricanes?
the Coriolis effect
Is responsible for the curving path of the winds and the spiraling of hurricanes?
This is the Coriolis Effect.
What line can hurricanes not cross?
Hurricanes do not typically cross the equator. Due to the Coriolis effect, hurricanes tend to spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere, making it difficult for them to maintain their structure when crossing the equator.
Does Coriolis effect help define hurricanes?
Yes, the Coriolis effect plays a key role in the development and rotation of hurricanes. It causes air moving towards the center of low-pressure systems to deflect, resulting in the characteristic spinning motion of hurricanes in the Northern Hemisphere. The Coriolis effect is essential for the formation and organization of these large-scale tropical storms.
What happens to hurricanes that travel across islands in the Caribbean?
Smaller islands such as those of the Lesser Antilles will have little effect on hurricanes. Storms that hit the larger islands such as Cuba will weaken.
How do hurricanes effect the land?
they damage buildings,animals shelters,humans shelters
How can you put the word hurricanes in a sentence?
Hurricanes cause a lot of damage when the hit land. Each year many hurricanes cause damage to buildings.
What do hurricanes do to very tall buildings eg CN tower?
knock them over
Is the typhoon destructive?
Yes,Typhoons And Hurricanes can tear Roof of buildings and worst.
How did the Hurricanes Katrina Effect?

What cost so much to fix in hurricanes?
Buildings and electrical lines are some of the things that cost so much to fix in hurricanes. Other pricey items to fix include government buildings, roads, and traffic signals.
What part of the world do hurricanes mostly effect?
The troics
Why can't hurricanes form at the equator?
Hurricanes cannot form at the equator because the Coriolis effect, which is needed for their formation, is too weak in that region. The Coriolis effect is a force caused by the Earth's rotation that helps hurricanes spin and develop.
What is it called when there is a group of hurricanes?
A group, or 2 or more, hurricanes has no official name. It just pertains to the chaos theory and the fujiwara effect. But when hurricanes do get close enough to each other, they will circle each other until an outside force pulls them apart. This is called the Fujiwara effect.
How do hurricanes effect the atmosphere?
Hurricanes help maintain thermodynamic balance in the atmosphere. Along with other phenomena hurricanes help bring heat out of the tropics and into the higher latitudes.
Why do hurricanes not cross the equator?
Hurricanes do not cross the equator because of the Coriolis effect, which causes storms to rotate in a specific direction based on their location in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere. This effect prevents hurricanes from crossing the equator and moving from one hemisphere to the other.
Do earthquakes have any effect on significant weather events such as hurricanes?
No
