cyclone formation
Cyclones form when warm ocean water evaporates, creating moist air that rises and cools, forming clouds. As this process continues, the air's rotation, influenced by Earth's spin, causes the storm to spin faster, developing a low-pressure center. This organized system draws in surrounding air, intensifying the cyclone. The energy fueling it comes from the warm ocean surface, and the cyclone’s structure features strong winds and heavy rains. When it moves over cooler waters or land, the energy reduces, gradually weakening the storm. This process results in powerful weather systems capable of causing significant damage.
