Question

Describe the appearance of little cyclone.

Answer 1





 

In appearance, a tropical cyclone resembles a huge whirlpool - a gigantic mass of revolving moist air. Many diagrams in text books give the impression that tropical cyclones, like tornadoes, have a tall column-like shape. In reality, they have a disc-like shape with a vertical scale of tens of kilometres against horizontal dimensions of hundreds of kilometres.

Answer 2

Tropical cyclone, also called typhoon or hurricane, an intense circular storm that originates over warm tropical oceans and is characterized by low atmospheric pressure, high winds, and heavy rain.
