Tropical storms can intensify into hurricanes when they move over warm ocean waters (above 80°F/27°C) that provide the energy needed for the storm to strengthen. Additionally, low wind shear and high humidity in the atmosphere contribute to the development of hurricanes by allowing the storm structure to become more organized and sustain its strength.
