Hurricanes release energy through The massive condensation from evaporated ocean water. Hurricanes that affect the United States orginate in the warm Atlantic waters between South America and Africa.

9. What is an occluded front? Cold air mass overtakes a warm air masses and pushes it up

10. Which of the following is true for both hurricanes and tornadoes? They are cyclones. They are associated with low barometric pressure. They involve cumulonimbus clouds. They are anticyclones. They rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. They both occur most commonly in the spring.
