Best Answer

The most dangerous type of cyclone is a tropical cyclone such as a typhoon or hurricane. Tropical cyclones develop by feeding on the moisture that evaporates from warm ocean water. Moisture they cannot get over land. Upon hitting land these storm systems rapidly lose strength, so their worst impacts are usually confined to coastal areas.
