A storm system called a 'Tropical Cyclone' also known as a 'Hurricane' if it forms over the Atlantic, a 'Cyclone' if it forms over the Indian ocean and a 'Typhoon' if it forms over the Pacific.
It has 1 eye. A cyclone is a swirling air mass generated by heat while over tropical waters. The convection spins it counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere it spins clockwise. But it only has 1 eye.
Tropical ocean waters are more saline than colder waters because tropical waters undergo ocean currents due to the vertical and horizontal movement of seawater.
Cyclone George in 2007 was caused by a combination of warm ocean waters and atmospheric conditions that fueled the development of a tropical low pressure system in the Indian Ocean. As it intensified, the system evolved into a powerful cyclone that eventually made landfall in Western Australia.
Hurricane Sandy started out as a tropical disturbance over the Caribbean Sea. The disturbance was an area of low pressure that produced some showers and thunderstorms. Over the warm waters of the Caribbean the disturbance organized and strengthened first to a tropical depression, then to a tropical storm, then to a hurricane.
Hurricanes form over tropical waters and are earth's largest and most destructive storms.

Hurricane
A large swirling low-pressure system that forms over tropical waters is called a hurricane or typhoon (depending on the region). These storms are known for their strong winds, heavy rainfall, and potential for causing widespread damage.

A name that's given to a tropical cyclone is cyclone Tracy
The tropical cyclone has the greatest range of pressure. It is a low-pressure system that forms over warm ocean waters and can have a range of pressure between 900 to 1050 millibars.

A hurricane is a type of cyclone, specifically a tropical cyclone that forms over warm ocean waters. These storms have low pressure systems at their centers and spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. Conversely, an anticyclone is a high-pressure system where air descends and rotates clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere.
