The flow inside the funnel of the tornado is downward, supplying water vapor from the cloud above. This is contrary to the upward flow inside hurricanes, supplying water vapor from the warm ocean below. Therefore, the energy of the tornado is supplied from the cloud above. [60] [61]

The islands are situated far outside the Main Development Region for Atlantic hurricanes, [2] but within the typical belt of recurving tropical cyclones. [3] Most storms form in the central Atlantic or western Caribbean Sea before approaching Bermuda from the southwest; storms forming north of 28°N are unlikely to impact the territory. [4]
Hurricane Matthew was the strongest tropical cyclone to threaten and impact Florida since Hurricane Wilma in 2005. Developing into a tropical storm on September 28, Matthew underwent rapid intensification, strengthening to a Category 5 hurricane with winds of 165 mph (266 km/h) by October 1.
Track maps of Pacific hurricanes from 1832 to 1922. The following is a list of Pacific hurricanes before 1900. Data on most of the storms that formed is unavailable, however, some regions had a large enough coastal population or ship traffic to give data on the occurrence of hurricanes.

Projected global surface temperature changes relative to 1850–1900, based on CMIP6 multi-model mean changes. The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report defines global mean surface temperature (GMST) as the "estimated global average of near-surface air temperatures over land and sea ice, and sea surface temperature (SST) over ice-free ocean regions, with changes normally expressed as departures from a ...
