In an average year how many tropical storms form in the world?
On average, about 80 tropical storms form globally each year.
Why do tropical storms develop in the regions they do?
Tropical storms develop in specific regions near the equator because they require warm ocean waters (above 26°C) to fuel their formation and intensification. As the warm air rises, it creates a low pressure system that allows for further development of the storm. Additionally, the Coriolis effect helps give these storms their rotation, which is necessary for their organization and strengthening.
Does every severe storm in the Atlantic becomes a hurricane?
