Where are most tropical storms located?
Tropical storms are known by many names, including hurricanes (North America), cyclones (India) and typhoons (Japan and East Asia). They all occur in a band that lies roughly between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn and despite varying wind speeds are ferocious storms. Some storms can form just outside of the tropics, but in general the distribution (location) of these storms is controlled by the places where sea temperatures rise above 27°C.The highest number of storms does not occur in the Atlantic close to the USA, but in the North Pacific affecting countries such as the Philippines and Japan. This is despite the fact that in the UK we only really get to hear about tropical storms affecting the USA. The most affected area being South East Asia receives an average of 26 storms per year. The least affected area is India where there is an average of 2 tropical storms per year
What are the descriptions of distribution of tropical storms?
Tropical storms typically form over warm ocean waters in the tropics, where sea surface temperatures exceed 26°C (79°F). They are characterized by organized convection, low pressure centers, and identifiable circulation patterns. The distribution of tropical storms is most prevalent in regions like the Atlantic Ocean, the Eastern and Western Pacific, and the Indian Ocean, often following specific seasonal patterns influenced by climatic conditions. Storms tend to recurve away from the equator due to the Coriolis effect, leading to their movement towards higher latitudes before dissipating.
How many hurricanes hit the US in the year of 2012?
Two hurricanes made landfall in the United States in 2012: Hurricane Isaac on August 29, and Hurricane Sandy on October 29. Though Sandy was technically a post-tropical cyclone by the time it made landfall, it is generally counted as a hurricane. Additionally, two tropical storms made landfall in the U.S. Beryl made landfall as a strong tropical storm on May 30. Beryl may have briefly reached hurricane intensity, but the available information is inconclusive. The other storm was Debbie, which made landfall as a minimal tropical storm on June 26.
How do scientist name hurricanes once all the letters are used?

Why do tropical storms develop in the regions they do?
There are three main factors that affect the formation of tropical storms. First, tropical storms can only form over warm ocean water as it is the moisture from these oceans that fuels them. So they are mainly limited tropical regions. Second, wind shear can essentially tear a storm apart, so tropical storms usually do not form often in places with strong wind shear. As an example, the southern Atlantic ocean experiences a lot of wind shear, making tropical storms there extremely rare. Third, tropical storms need a strong Coriolis Effect to form as this is what drives their rotation. As a result tropical storms cannot form on the equator, and rarely form very close to it.
