Hurricanes, typhoons
and tropical cyclones FAQ the terms "hurricane" and "typhoon" are
regionally specific names for a strong "tropical cyclone". A tropical cyclone is
the generic term for a non-frontal synoptic scale low-pressure system over tropical or sub-tropical waters with organized convection (i.e. thunderstorm
activity) and definite cyclonic surface wind circulation |

Anatomy of a hurricane
Hurricanes evolve and decay from weather anomalies through defined stages.
Tropical storms are loosely defined as a warm-core, non frontal, low pressure
large weather system with a defined counter clockwise wind rotation that form
over tropical or subtropical waters |

Hurricanes
hurricanes are formed over tropical oceans where there are warm waters, humid air and converging winds. It takes a lot of energy for a hurricane to
be created- not to mention just the right conditions. Hurricanes start out as a group of storms that begin to rotate when they encounter converging
winds |

Saffir-Simpson scale the relative strength of a hurricane is also
measured on a scale based on its greatest wind speed. This scale is named
the Saffir-Simpson scale for the men who invented it |

Tropical
cyclones tropical cyclones are low pressure systems in the tropics that,
in the Southern Hemisphere, have well defined clockwise wind circulations
with a region surrounding the centre with gale force winds (sustained winds
of 63 km/h or greater with gusts in excess of 90 km/h) |
