A tropical storm is a low pressure area of organized thunderstorms. If conditions are right, and the storm is over warm enough water, the low pressure will draw in warm, moist air. As this air rises in the storm the moisture condenses and releases energy. This causes the pressure in the storm to decrease, which gives it an even stronger pull on the air, resulting in faster winds. When sustained winds reach 74 mph, the tropical storm is considered a hurricane.
