The hurricanes that effect the Eastern part of the U.S. Originate off the west
Coast of Africa. They start off as a thunderstorm & will reach hurricane
status in 3 stages: 1. Tropical depression - swirling clouds and
rain with wind speeds < 38 mph. 2. Tropical storm - wind speeds of 39 to 73 mph.3. Hurricane - wind speeds greater
than 74 mph.

Hurricanes form when all 3 of the following conditions occur:
Sea temperature higher than 80F.Atmosphere saturated with moisture.Convergence of equatorial winds .

As a storm system develops, moisture continues to evaporate from the
ocean surface. This moisture condenses as it rises. Soon, clouds and rain become caught up in the
circular motion of a storm. As long as the tropical storm remains over the warm water of the open ocean, the hurricane can get stronger and
larger.
