They weaken into extra tropical cyclones after prolonged contact with cold ocean waters and decay rapidly over land."" Kate glanced at the clock. "Son, I have to go. It's almost time for my daily forecast."" Scrutinizing over her monitor one more time, Kate left for the camera room. .
The warm waters of the Atlantic churned furiously, rising and dropping. Several thunderstorms had banded together, rotating with the converging winds. Lightning roused the waters. Vapor sifted into the air, towards the dark skies .
Standing in front of a weather map, Kate cleared her throat, staring at the camera. "It appears that a tropical disturbance has formed and is well on it's way to becoming a disturbance. Since some of you might know what this means, I'll warn a hurricane could be created in less than three days."" She explained temperatures and gestured towards points of interest.
"Hurricanes form over tropical oceans where there is warm water, humid air and converging winds. They start out as a group of storms that begin to rotate upon encountering converging winds. These storms create violent seas, stirring up much water into the air in vapor form. This vapor rises quickly, circulating with the storms, increasing wind speed. The storms begin to organize, hold themselves together and form a center rotation point of low pressure. After sustained wind speeds reach 74 miles per hour, we have a hurricane. Please regularly check our emergency broadcasting system at the bottom of your TV screen. Remember, a warning means the right conditions, a watch means it's coming "watch out. Well, that concludes the forecast for tonight."" .
Spinning and spinning, the organized thunderstorms circled around in the ominous sky, like a top. The waters were restless. The winds were whipping with fury. The depression was expanding its reaches, waiting to kill, like a black hole of the sea. .
October 16. Rubbing her eyes anxiously, Kate turned her radio to the weather station.
