Question

Why devastating hurricanes are on the zone of U.S.A Mexico and the Caribbean country is it hurricanes area ?

Answer 1

Yes. Every year between June 1 a­nd November 30 (commonly called hurricane season), hurricanes threaten the eastern and gulf coasts of the United States, Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. In other parts of the world, the same types of storms are called typhoons or cyclones.

Hurricanes form in tropical regions where there is warm water (at least 80 degrees Fahrenh­eit / 27 degrees Celsius), moist air and converging equatorial winds. Most Atlantic hu­rricanes begin off the west coast of Africa, starting as thunderstorms that move out over the warm, tropical ocean waters. A thunderstorm reaches hurricane status in three stages:

Tropical depression - swirling clouds and rain with wind speeds of less than 38 mph (61.15 kph / 33 kt)

Tropical storm - wind speeds of 39 to 73 mph (54.7 to 117.5 kph / 34 to 63 kt)

Hurricane - wind speeds greater than 74 mph (119 kph / 64 kt)

Warm, moist air from the ocean surface begins to rise rapidly. As this warm air rises, its water vapor condenses to form storm clouds and droplets of rain. The condensation releases heat called latent heat of condensation. This latent heat warms the cool air aloft, thereby causing it to rise. This rising air is replaced by more warm, humid air from the ocean below. This cycle continues, drawing more warm, moist air into the developing storm and continuously moving heat from the surface to the atmosphere. This exchange of heat from the surface creates a pattern of wind that circulates around a center.

Answer 2

Not just the USA, Mexico, and the Caribbean.

Typhoons and Cyclones are the same as Hurricanes, just different names used in different parts of the world.

Answer 3

becuase thets all the have to go to. due to trade winds as well as the earths rotation storms head west more often that east. also storms cant cross the equator so the only place for them to go is the usa, carribean, and mexico,

but also china and japan get hit very hard as well as all of coastal asia from typoons which are similar to hurricanes only have a different name
