Hurricanes are the most violent type of storm seen on planet Earth. They are similar to tornadoes in that they feature strong swirling winds, but hurricanes are much bigger.

How do hurricanes form? Warm ocean water near the equator evaporates to form clouds. Then, it cools and begins to sink.

Eventually, the rising warm air and falling cooler air form a pattern like water going down a drain. This is what causes the hurricane to spin.

When the wind speed reaches 74 miles per hour, the storm is officially considered a hurricane.

Are there hurricanes where you live? People who live on islands or coastlines near the tropics may experience hurricanes.

For this reason, weather services track hurricanes and warn people to take shelter or evacuate when a hurricane is imminent.

Hurricanes quickly lose their power once they reach land - an event which is termed "making landfall." Rain from hurricanes often reaches inland areas, but without the forceful winds.

Did you know? A hurricane can be 1,000 miles across and 10 miles high. The eye, or center, of the hurricane is several miles across. There, the air is calm and the winds mild; it may even be sunny as the eye passes over.

Other planets have hurricanes, too. The Great Red Spot on the planet Jupiter is the largest storm in our solar system, and it has been raging for hundreds of years.

Hurricanes often form in the Atlantic Ocean near the Gulf of Mexico. They can also form in the Pacific Ocean. Near Japan and the rest of Asia, these storms are called typhoons. Near Australia and Africa, they are known as cyclones.

Color your cartoon hurricane. From above, hurricanes look like a white mass of clouds. Below, they may be darkened by mud and debris picked up by the winds.
