Overview
A tropical cyclone is a rotating, organized system of clouds and
thunderstorms that originates over tropical or subtropical waters and
has a closed low-level circulation. Tropical cyclones rotate
counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. They are classified as
follows:
- Tropical Depression: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 38 mph (33 knots)
- or less.
- Tropical Storm: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 39 to 73 mph (34 to 63 knots).
- Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 74 mph (64 knots) or higher. In the western North Pacific, hurricanes are called typhoons; similar storms in the Indian Ocean and South Pacific Ocean are called cyclones.
- Major Hurricane: A tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds of 111 mph (96 knots) or higher, corresponding to a Category 3, 4 or 5 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.
Tropical cyclones forming between 5 and 30 degrees North latitude
typically move toward the west. Sometimes the winds in the middle and
upper levels of the atmosphere change and steer the cyclone toward the
north and northwest. When tropical cyclones reach latitudes near 30
degrees North, they often move northeast.
