What hemisphere do hurricanes occur?
If you mean hemisphere, they occur in both. Tropical Cyclones spin counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere, and clockwise in the southern. The North Hemisphere is generally more active and produces more intense storms than the southern though.
Can hurricanes form anywhere in the world?
Hurricanes can only form in tropical and subtropical regions where warm ocean water provides the energy needed for their formation and intensification. In the Northern Hemisphere, they usually form between June and November, while in the Southern Hemisphere, the typical season is from November to April.
What hemispere is holland in?
A hemisphere is half of any sphere. The earth can be divided into several - most usually the Northern/Southern hemispheres and the Eastern/Western hemispheres. As a European country, The Netherlands (the 'proper' name for Holland) is in both the Northern hemisphere and the Western hemisphere.
What season will the sun rises due east today but will rise slighty north of due east tomorrow?
That happens when at the March equinox - usually the 20th or 21st of March. This is the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere, or the beginning of autumn (fall) in the southern hemisphere.
The coldest month is normally the month of?
The coldest month is probably December or January if you live in the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere the coolest months could be June, July, August. 2nd answer: Here in northern Idaho, the coldest month has historically been February.

Do tornadoes turn in a clockwise dirction?
Usually they do in the southern hemisphere. In the northern hemisphere they usually rotate counterclockwise. Some tornadoes, called anticyclonic tornadoes, do rotate clockwise in the northern hemisphere, but such storms are very rare.
Does which hemisphere affect cyclones and hurricanes rotation?
Yes - a cyclone is a Southern hemisphere word for what is usually called a hurricane in the Northern hemisphere. Cyclones are the same thing as hurricanes, and for that matter, as tropical storms and typhoons too, but it's important to know that whilst they all mean the same kind of weather event, the word 'cyclone' originates from the Southern hemisphere. A cyclone is an appropriate name for such an event in the Southern hemisphere (eg Cyclone Nargis that hit Myanmar) because here, the weather system rotates clockwise. For us and my students in the UK in the Northern hemisphere, however, it sounds counter intuitive to call these systems cyclones because in the Northern hemisphere they rotate anti-clockwise and so they are traditionally known as hurricanes (eg Hurricane Katrina that hit the US). The rotation is caused by the earth's spin, known as the 'coriolis effect', which causes the airflow patterns to be affected, with the direction of rotation being determined by whichever hemisphere the hurricane spawns in.
Where do the Northern Lights occur?
The Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis, occur in the Earth's polar regions, typically closer to the North Pole in the Northern Hemisphere. They are caused by the interaction between charged particles from the sun and the Earth's magnetic field.
Which hemisphere are evergreen trees found in?

What day is the autumn equinox usually?

What hemispheres is Italy in?
