Cyclone Dynamics
Tropical cyclones form over warm ocean waters, primarily within a few degrees of the equator, and are driven westward by easterly trade winds. As they travel, these storms can curve back towards the east when they reach higher latitudes, influenced by westerly winds. Key formation hotspots include the Pacific, Indian, and North Atlantic Oceans, with many hurricanes impacting the US originating from the central Atlantic region.In this clip
