As the two walls create a passageway there is not much light getting into this area so the sun doesn’t shine much into this area‚ there is also lots

Wind vane 3.2 I made my wind vane out of cardboard‚ sand‚ 2l bottle‚ and kebab sticks.

Another important key a hurricane needs to form is winds mainly coming from the west (Westward)‚ as this happens the water evaporates due to the wind and the heat pulling up then cools down when high enough and transforms into giant water droplets creating the ginormous cumulonimbus clouds. After the clouds begin to circle around caused by the wind and lest the water go down the eye/hole in the
