Hurricane
Description
An Atlantic hurricane is a type of tropical cyclone that forms in the Atlantic Ocean primarily between June and November. These storms are continuously rotating around a low pressure center, which causes stormy weather across a large area, which is not limited to just the eye of the storm. They are organized systems of clouds and thunderstorms that originate over tropical or subtropical waters and have closed low-level circulation.
