Hurricanes are usually found in tropical and subtropical waters when weather conditions are right. They form north of 10 degrees north or south of 10 degrees south. To rotate they need the force of the earth's rotation which they do not have at the equator. (See a physics text book.) They like low pressure and warm water below, moisture and high pressure aloft. They do not form when there are high winds aloft. They do not form when there is dry air aloft. When moisture turns to rain it produces 540 calories per gram. That provides the heat to produce the winds drive the storm. The winds churn up the ocean below to produce more moisture.
So hurricanes are found where the right conditions exist.
Hurricanes can still exist over water where it is too cold for them to form. Their high winds can churn up enough water to keep the process going when there is no where near enough moisture to get hurricane force winds and a cyclical storm started.

Hurricanes do not typically occur in the Antarctic region. Hurricanes are more common in tropical and subtropical regions where warm ocean waters fuel their development. The unique climate and geography of Antarctica do not provide the necessary conditions for hurricanes to form.
Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes. Both hurricanes and tornadoes can be deadly, although hurricanes are more likely to cause widespread destruction due to their larger size and duration. Both hurricanes and tornadoes have strong winds, but hurricanes typically have more sustained, powerful winds over a larger region.
No, the Mediterranean does not typically experience hurricanes.
Hurricanes require warm ocean temperatures of at least 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit) to form and strengthen. These warm temperatures are typically found closer to the equator, which is why hurricanes are more common in tropical regions. In temperate latitudes, ocean temperatures are cooler and less conducive to hurricane formation.
Hurricanes happen every year.
A list of hurricanes is more likely to be found in an almanac that focuses on weather and natural disasters. Encyclopedias may include information on significant hurricanes, but a comprehensive list of hurricanes is more commonly found in specialized weather resources.
they can be found all over the earth except Antarctica Hurricanes specifically form over tropical ocean waters.
Hurricanes happen over hot water ... which is found close to the equator.
how did hurricanes start? For my whole life I was wondering how hurricanes start but noone has found an answer so please tell me how it started.
Yes. Some of the lowest sea-level pressure on Earth are found in the eyes of major hurricanes.
Alaska doesn't have hurricanes. Hurricanes occur in warm tropical water and Alaska is not located at or below the equator where the tropics are found.
Hurricanes, thunderstorms, and tornadoes can all cause damage to vegetation and man made structure through their winds. Hurricanes and thunderstorms both produce rain, which can sometimes lead to flooding. It should be noted that hurricanes produce thunderstorms and thunderstorms, including those found in hurricanes, are what produce tornadoes.
It is unlikely for hurricanes to directly bring sharks to land. Although some sharks are capable of traveling long distances, they are primarily oceanic creatures and are not typically found ashore as a result of hurricanes.
Tornadoes can be found on land, mostly like in the Tornado Alley area such as Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas. Hurricanes can be found out in the ocean and coast areas primarily in tropical regions.
Hurricanes are primarily found in regions near the equator, including countries in the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and eastern Pacific Ocean. Some countries that frequently experience hurricanes include the United States, Mexico, Cuba, and the Bahamas.
