Generation

# Hurricane Formation Hurricanes form when warm ocean water (at least 80°F/26.5°C) evaporates, rises, and condenses, releasing heat that powers rotating storm systems organized by the Coriolis effect at least 5° from the equator. ## Why It Matters Understanding this process enables forecasters to predict hurricane development and intensity, potentially saving thousands of lives through timely evacuations. It also helps scientists assess how climate change—particularly warming oceans—may increase hurricane frequency and severity, informing coastal planning and disaster preparedness strategies.
