We will find out in a couple days NOAA issued an advisory 450 miles of Bermuda. There is a sixty percent chance of cyclone. If it becomes a hurricane it will be the first of its kind. I hope not we are just finished with Irene not sure that Katia is not going to go north west. We don't need to have to have the metro area pulverized by multiple storms. Lets hope this is a fluke.
Hi Most hurricanes form in the Atlantic but they can form in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean as well. Typhoons form in the Pacific Ocean. A good site to learn about hurricanes is at: http://www.hurricaneknowledge.com
No. Only Atlantic hurricanes, and even then, only about half of Atlantic hurricanes start there. Hurricanes can also form in the west Atlantic and the Caribbean. Hurricane Katrina, for example, formed near the Bahamas.
Hurricanes form over large bodies of water, such as the Atlantic Ocean
Hurricanes require huge amounts of moisture to form. This moisture can only be found over warm ocean water. The north Atlantic is too cold for this.
Hurricanes primarily form in the Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Pacific Ocean. The Atlantic hurricanes impact regions such as the Caribbean, Central America, and the southeastern United States. In the eastern Pacific, hurricanes affect countries along the west coast of Central America and Mexico.
Mostly in the Atlantic Oceans or Gulf of Mexico. The Pacific Ocean generates far fewer hurricanes than does the Atlantic Ocean.
Hurricanes typically form over warm ocean waters near the equator. The majority of hurricanes originate in the Atlantic Ocean, particularly in the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. They can also form in the Pacific Ocean, primarily in the region near Southeast Asia and the western coast of North and South America.
Hurricanes typically develop in the warm regions of the Atlantic Ocean. The warm waters provide the energy needed for the formation and intensification of hurricanes.
No, Minnesota does not experience hurricanes due to its location far inland from the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico where hurricanes typically form. Minnesota may experience severe storms and tornadoes, but not hurricanes.
Hurricanes usually occur in the North Atlantic Ocean, the Northeast Pacific Ocean, and the Northwest Pacific Ocean. These regions are known as basins where tropical cyclones, including hurricanes, typically form.
An Atlantic typhoon is called a hurricane. They generally form in the eastern Atlantic Ocean but sometimes form in the Gulf of Mexico.
Hurricanes need warm ocean water to form. Up north the water is too cold.
