We will start our unit on hurricanes by learning how they are formed. Density plays a key roll in hurricane formation. As air is warmed it becomes less dense and rises higher in the sky. If this warm air moves over warm water than the water will be pulled up into the weather system. Warm air and warm water are the fuels that are needed to form a hurricane.
The first set of hurricane vocab is up on Quizlet link. These terms deal with how a hurricane is formed. The vocab is due on Friday, Oct. 1st.
