Madagascar is frequently impacted by hurricanes due to its geographical location in the Indian ocean, where warm ocean waters provide the necessary energy for storm formation. The island is situated along the path of tropical storms that develop in the ocean, especially during the cyclone season from November to April. Additionally, Madagascar's topography and climate can exacerbate the effects of these storms, making it more susceptible to severe weather events. The combination of these factors results in a higher frequency of hurricanes affecting the island.

Why is Georgia not directly hit by hurricanes?

Georgia is not immune to hurricanes, but its location along the coast makes it less likely to be directly hit compared to other states like Florida or Louisiana. However, the state can still experience impacts from hurricanes such as heavy rain, strong winds, storm surges, and flooding. Topography, such as the Appalachian Mountains, can also weaken hurricanes as they move inland.
