to each of the questions.
Tropical cyclones are called typhoons in Asia and hurricanes in North an America. These
forms go around like a wheel turning to the left when they ni northern part of the world. They
have wind speeds of 60 kph or more. In the United the Tropical Prediction Center in Miami,
Florida keeps an eye out for hurricanes.
When meteorologists detect a hurricane, they give it a name. They can use ei male or
female name. Why should tropical cyclones have names? The name makes it easy for people to
keep up with information about a hurricane and its possible dangers.
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an international weather group. decides what
names will be used. The WMO makes lists of names using the English alphabet. Each name on
the list starts with a different letter. The first hurricane of the year gets the first name on that
year's list. The second hurricane gets the next name. For examples if the first hurricane is named
Abel, the second might be named Betty. The name lists do include names beginning with the
letters Q, U, X. Y and Z. There aren't many names that begin with these letters.
Asian countries use a different list, which is made up by the WMO's Typhoon
Committee. This list has a few personal names, but most of the names are of flowers, animals,
trees, and other similar things.
