Tropical cyclones form over warm ocean waters and are characterized by strong winds that spiral inward toward the eye of the storm. They typically occur in late summer and can last over a week, causing significant flooding, property damage, and loss of life through heavy winds and rainfall. The conditions needed for formation include warm ocean temperatures, high humidity, low atmospheric pressure, and convective cloud patterns.
