Tropical Cyclone and Small Circles
An essay on cyclone
A cyclone is a very violent storm. It never comes alone. Heavy showers of rain, thunder and lightning are its companions. When a cyclone blows, it moves round and round in the form of small circles. It always changes its course when it blows. It does not move in the same direction like an ordinary storm. It occurs mostly in the warm parts of the world. India is in this region of the world. Hence cyclones often blow over her. In cold countries there is no cyclone.
The signs of a cyclone
There are some signs of the blowing of a cyclone. A low pressure is created in the sea. The weather becomes very hot. There is not a breath of wind. Patches of dark clouds gradually spread in the sky. At last, the sky become dark. A storm sets in. The wind then begins to blow violently. From these we can understand that a cyclone will begin.
The actual cyclone
Then it rains very heavily. Flashes of lightning are seen. Thunders begin to peal loudly. The wind begins to blow furiously. It blows forward forming circles. There is a roaring noise. The wind continues to blow for some hours. Sometimes it continues for a day or two. Such terrible cyclones happened in September 1918 before the Pujas and in November 1988.
Its effect
The effect of the blowing of a cyclone is terrible. Big trees fall down. Roofs of houses are blown away. Many a house is destroyed. Many a man is killed. The water of the river rises. There are huge waves in the river. Many boats sink down. Many men are drowned. Sometimes steamers are also sunk. Everywhere dead bodies of men and beasts are found. Crops are destroyed. People suffer much. They become homeless and helpless. There is scarcity of food. Famine breaks out. This miserable condition of the people cannot be fully described. Other people then try to help them with money, food, medicine and clothes.
Conclusion
The cyclone is a terrible evil. Man has no power to prevent it. But people may be warned beforehand that there will be a

    Hurricanes can form very quickly and destroy communities in only a few days. Hurricanes are caused by warm, moist air being present over the ocean. The air rises up near the surface. The warm air rises so there is low pressure below. Air from nearby areas with higher pressure moves to areas with lower pressure. That air turns warm and moist and then rises. The surrounding air takes the place of that air. As the warm air cools, water in the air turns into clouds. The clouds and winds spin and grow, collecting the oceans heat and water from the surface (Erickson and Leon, 2017, p. 1-5). While the storm continues to grow it will reach different stages. At 38 miles per hour it is considered a tropical depression. Tropical depressions then become tropical storms and are given a name. Every six years a list of names is reused. These…

    A tropical cyclone is a storm system in the Southern Hemisphere, with a closed circulation around a center of low pressure, driven by heat energy released as moist air drawn in over warm ocean waters rises and condenses. The circular eye or centre of a tropical cyclone is an area characterised by light winds and often by clear skies. They derive their energy from the warm tropical oceans and do not form unless the sea-surface temperature is above 26.5°C, although, once formed, they can persist over lower sea-surface temperatures. Depending on their location and strength a cyclone be named otherwise like tropical storm, tropical depression, hurricane or typhoon. They can carry extremely high winds, tornadoes, torrential rain, and storm surge onto coasts, leading to mudslides, flash floods, and lightning sparked fires in addition to wind damage.…

    A hurricane is an intense tropical storm with powerful winds and heavy rain, also known as a cyclone. Hurricanes and tornadoes are both storm systems that can cause a lot of destruction. Hurricanes are much larger than tornadoes but tornadoes generate faster winds. They both need warm and cold air to become a hurricane or tornado, but are different in the way they form. Hurricanes and tornadoes both have a calm area at the center called an eye. The eye of a hurricane is the calmest. The winds around the eye of the hurricane are the strongest and are called the eye wall. They can have speeds over 200 miles per hour. In a tornado the eye is a “weak-echo” region it does not reflect a radar beam. Hurricanes and tropical storms also known as (cyclones)…

Then, I will discuss how hurricanes forms to begin with, but I will also mention what makes a hurricane lose energy. In discussing where and how hurricanes form, I will divide the development of a hurricane into four distinct stages: a tropical disturbance, tropical depression, tropical storm, and a tropical cyclone (W5). I shall make the reader aware of the physical structure of a hurricane; it is of utmost importance to make the reader aware of what the “eye” of a hurricane is and why it is so dangerous. Thereupon, I will expand on the five categories of tropical storms: category one, two, three, four, and five.…

Some of the strongest hurricanes carry winds having speed of at least 200 miles.
