Question

Where and how do tropical storms deevlop?

Answer 1

Tropical storms typically develop over the warm waters (typically at or above about 77 degrees F) of an ocean or gulf, mainly in tropical latitudes.  They initially start as a weak area of low pressure that strengthens as showers and thunderstorms wrap around the circulation center.  The heat released into the atmosphere as water vapor condenses in the showers and thunderstorms is what helps to strengthen the storm.

Answer 2

A tropical cyclone is a storm system characterized by a low pressure center and numerous thunderstorms that produce strong winds and flooding rain. It feeds on the heat released when moist air rises and the water vapor it contains condenses. The term "tropical" refers to both the geographic origin of these systems, which form almost exclusively in tropical regions of the globe.

Depending on their location and strength, tropical cyclones are referred to by other names, such as hurricane, typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression and simply cyclone.

While tropical cyclones can produce extremely powerful winds and torrential rain, they are also able to produce high waves and damaging storm surge. They "develop" over large bodies of warm water, and lose their strength if they move over land.

What!? Tropic storms deevlop?

Answer 4

The tropical sorms  form on the inter-tropical convergence zone where the tropical airmasses of the both hemisphere meet.These airmasses are warm and humid and have favourable lapse rates upto great heights.Therefore convections start on a large scale developing into tropical storms.The energy of the storms is derived from the latent heat of condensation of the ascending moist air.

So, when they enter the land, their moisture source is cut off and consequently they weaken.

A warm ocean surface with a temperature of atleast 26.5 degrees celcius,steep lapse rate,moisture layer to a considerable height,a pre-existing disturbance near ground level,absence of strong vertical wind shear and a distance of atleast 500 kms from the euator are the required conditions for the formation of the storms.
