All About Tropical Cyclone
A tropical cyclone evolves when the storm system fueled by the heat released when moist air rises and the water vapor in it condenses. The earth's rotation also imparts an acceleration. Tropical cyclones are distinguished from other cyclonic windstorms.
1.nor'easters.
2.European windstorms.
3.polar lows.
by the heat mechanism that fuels them, which makes them "warm core" storm systems.
there are various terms by which tropical cyclones are known, Depending on their location and strength.
1.hurricane.
2.typhoon.
3.tropical storm.
4.cyclonic storm.
5.tropical depression.
Tropical cyclones can produce strong winds such as tornadoes, torrential rain, high waves and storm surges. These can produce extensive flooding. tropical cyclones also can have beneficial effects by relieving drought conditions.
Mechanics of tropical cyclones:
tropical cyclone is a large, rotating system of clouds, wind, and thunderstorms.
Physical structure:
A tropical cyclone consists of the following components
1.surface low
2.Warm core
3.Central Dense Overcast (CDO)
4.eye
5.Eyewall
6.Rainbands
7.Outflow
Locations of formation:
There are many names for the tropical cyclones.
1.ITD- the Intertropical Discontinuity
2.ITCZ- Intertropical Convergence Zone
3.monsoon trough
most of them form between 10 and 30 degrees of the equator and 87% form within 20 degrees of it.
Basins and Monitoring Institution:
1.In Northern Atlantic there is a WMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Center called WMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Center.
2.In Northeastern pacific there are two WMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers called the National Hurricane Center and the Central Pacific Hurricane Center.
3.In Northwestern Pacific there is one WMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Center called Japan Meteorological Agency.

1.Northern Atlantic Ocean
2.Northeastern Pacific Ocean
3.Northwestern Pacific Ocean
4.Northern Indian Ocean
5.Southwestern Pacific Ocean
6.Southeastern Indian Ocean
7.Southwestern Indian Ocean
Unusual formation areas:
1.Temperate subtropics
2.Low latitudes
3.Southeastern Pacific
4.South Atlantic
5.Mediterranean Sea
6.The Great Lakes
Effects:
A tropical cyclone moving over land can do direct damage in four ways
1.High winds
2.Storm surge
3.Heavy rain
4.Tornado activity
The distruction that can be done is.
1.Disease: the warm tropical climate and the wetness can lead to epidemics of disease which claim lives long after the storm passes.
2.Power outages: due to the cyclone there can be a power cut for millons of people.
3.Transportation difficulties: often destroy key bridges, overpasses, and roads, complicating efforts to transport food, clean water, and medicine to the areas

What ever happened to GI Joes?
I remember when I was a kid ('98-'05) I used to see GI Joes whenever I went in the store. When I say GI Joes I don't mean venom-vs-valor-duke-snake-eyes-cobra I mean 12" figures modeled after soldier from the military, non-fiction soliders. WWII, Vietnam, Desert Storm... ones modeled after soldiers in wars not some fictional base where cobra commander makes a gun that blows up jupiter. Did they discontinue them? Why? Not that I'm going to go out and buy a squad, dig some holes in my yard, and make-believe. I am just curious as to why the 12" Joes modeled after non-fiction soldiers are never around.
Hasbro does not make the 12" G.I. Joes based on "real life people" any more, but companies such as Sideshow, Dragon and others produce realistic 12" Soldiers
