Top 10 Fascinating Facts About Hurricanes

Today I will tell you Top 10 Fascinating Facts About Hurricanes   A Hurricanes is a rapidly rotating storm system characterized by a low-pressure centre, a closed low-level atmospheric circulation, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain.

1.  Hurricanes comprise of a lot of Snow and Ice

   Hurricanes last on heat, but hurricane clouds soar up to the troposphere. Vital hurricanes have the hot rise that approaches to the stratosphere. And the temperature up there is about -51 degrees Celsius (-60 degrees F) due to which Hurricane’s moisture turns into snow and ice. A day before the Hurricane occurs the sky gets hazy, and this haziness is because of cirrus clouds ( part of outflow of Hurricane) made up of an ice crystal.

2. Hurricanes Breathe as well as Blink their Eyes

   Hurricanes breathe at the surface of Ocean. The Coriolis Effect diverts the movement of air in clockwise towards Southern Hemisphere and to the Northern Hemisphere anticlockwise. This exerts a pressure at the centre of the hurricane forming an Eye.

    Hurricanes Range on Seismographs

   As the waves of ocean contains many litres of water, but the waves of hurricanes exceed all. Its waves move very fast having plenty of momentum. This strained power makes the earth to shake. These giant waves collide causing the low frequency of sound waves. In early 1900 s the scientist thought these sound waves were just the background noise. But in the 20th century, they came to know that these Seismic Waves were caused by Hurricanes.

   It’s a Mystery that What Stimulate Hurricanes

   The Scientist believed that hurricanes formed when snug air rises in ocean creating a low pressure. When more air flows into it, it becomes even warmer. This constitutes a cycle where air continuously stirs, due to which rising air cools down forming clouds and thunderstorm. But this thing disturbed few scientist. Even though the weather conditions are normal, then what causes triggering of hurricanes? All Scientist are still searching for it.

5. Atlantic Hurricanes are Influenced by the Sahara Desert

   As the Sahara Desert sits near the Equator, with cooler and wet regions in West and South. When the hot air from Sahara desert mix with the fresh air of nearby region it causes the thunderstorm. Thunderstorms originated from Sahara desert are known as “African Easterly Jet” About 90% of Hurricanes form in this manner. Agree to it or not, the intensive Hurricane, named Iselle, hit the massive island of Hawaii in 2014.

6.  Hurricanes Releases extensive amount of Energy

   As Hurricanes have high winds and rain, but they gush on heat which is generated from clouds. For instance, if you get out of swimming pool you feel cool even though the water was hot. This is because the water on your skin is evaporated in the air. Similarly, the Hurricanes do the same but in reverse. They condense the water from the air, releasing energy. Hurricanes liberate 200 times more energy than that of Earth’s electrical generating power.

    Hurricanes Comprise of some Limits

   Although Hurricanes are awe-inspiring, they also follow strict rules. Due to Coriolis Effect Hurricanes can only rotate determinedly, which stops them from crossing the equator. Apart from this 2 or more Hurricanes are close together they cannot join together. Instead, they repel. This effect is called “Fujiwhara Effect.”

8. Hurricanes are Interested in Loop The Loop

   Researchers stated that Hurricanes of Australian Tropical move unpredictably than anywhere else. They play loop the loop with them. They can make fierce turns forming a circle. A scientist is puzzled and still working on this reason.

9. Tornadoes are Induced by Hurricanes

   Although Hurricanes and Tornadoes are two different rotating systems, Hurricanes can spawn Tornadoes. Tornadoes can induce by Hurricanes when hit the land and decompose its watery heat source. This sets upwind speed in different altitudes, forming Tornadoes.

10.  Hurricanes can Augment and Evolve

    Hurricanes formed in Atlantic, and Typhoons in Pacific are also called Tropical Cyclones. They are the almost same storm. Sometimes these cyclones turn into “Extra-Tropical Cyclones” means heat no more generates them. Instead, they are formed by varied in the air temperature.
