      There are scientists back in the 70s warning about a bunch of climate related irregularities cause of fossil fuel. Hurricanes and clouds (extreme weather patterns) were one of it since heat is the main component. The only thing they got wrong is the timeline. We are there way sooner than expected.

    Buoyancy is the key reason why jupiter's Great Red Spot is anticyclonic. On Earth cyclones are formed when gases rise up and are met with rotational spin. On Jupiter cyclones are formed when gases sink back down to the planet's metallic surface. Gases rise from the super heated core, and as they cool they sink back down. That combined with rotational motion forms the characteristic vortices.

      normal storms don't have the energy to make it over the Great Dividing Range with enough rain left to get water to them, plus unlike most of the world including america we have super strict building standards and a huge budget in lowering damage caused by TCs, most buildings, including my own home, are now rated to Category 4 with Category 5's being the only one we haven't built for yet but many universities get massive grants on researching that.

    correction ... typhoons hold the torch if any storms do ... the strongest storm on record with the lowest pressure is still Super Typhoon Tip back in 1979. then one of the most potent typhoons also was Super Typhoon haiyan (also called super typhoon yolanda in phillipines) back in 2013. also asias' "hurricane season" typhoon season often see 2x more storms than the US season. the atlantic average is 10.1 storms per year ... the western pacific avg 26 typhoons a year. another fun fact : a hurricane low pressure at the surface spins counter-clockwise and the outflow at the top of the storm spins clockwise. thats why you see the main storm spinning counter clockwise but you still see some clouds moving in an unnatural looking way clockwise

Instead of categorizing hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, tornadoes by just wind speed and the resulting amount of destruction, we need to start adding in the rate at which things are destroyed or redistributed. The faster buildings and foliage destroyed and the rate of convection occurs should be the overall determinate for these purported "megastorms"

    The reason why Jupiter’s Great Red Spot spins counterclockwise is because it’s actually a high pressure system rather than a low pressure system.

    I could be wrong - the pressure on Jupiter is great enough to make the the spin move more like water. then how it shows on Earth. Maybe something else with the poles.

      Adam, are you trying to make fun of Chris with that sentence? His use of "learned" (pronounced "learn - ed" in 2 syllables) is a proper use of the word meaning "well informed" or "taught." Like in the phrase, "he is a learned scholar." Your use of "learning" is either bad use of grammar, or an attempt at making fun of Chris? If it is the latter, then you've just shown your lack of understanding.

    I don't know why I clicked on this video giving I am someone who chases tropical cyclones and has a great interest in them, this video was probably going to being hyper simplified and way under what I know.

      By The Way Hurricane Sandy never made landfall in the states as tropical status... it had already started extratropical transition due to merging with a nor'ester, however it was a tropical cyclone when it made landfall in Cuba and various other Caribbean locations.

    • @Athenas_Realm_System
      @Athenas_Realm_System 8 лет назад

      There are also multiple Scales in which can be applied to a tropical cyclone, Saffir Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale (SSHWS) is the most commonly used, even used as part of the category rating in all of the north pacific (though along side category ratings of the SSHWS, certain Typhoons are called Super Typhoons when they reach certain wind speeds) while here in Australia we use the Australia Tropical Cyclone Scale (ATCS) which doesn't have Tropical Storms but skips right to Category 1 after Tropical Low, but once a TC reaches Category 3 (which is first hurricane intensity) we call the Severe Tropical Cyclones (Cat 3-5 is equiv to cat 1-5 SSHWS) and south indian ocean TC warning centre in Madagascar uses their own scale, and the Indian Met uses there own for north indian ocean tropical Cyclone basin.
      Medicanes in the Mediterranean aren't true tropical cyclones, however due to them being also warm core, as well as traditional traits associated with extratropical cyclones like nor'esters, and European windstorms they are called subtropical cyclones or Hybrid Cyclones if Australian met was used as they get energy from both methods a TC would but also through baroclinical thermogradients. The South Atlantic Ocean isn't technically a TC basin but at this time is partly under the US Nat Hurricane centre jurisdiction however it is conceivable within a couple years the Tropical Lows will get their own unique Basin Identifier letter and a TCWC will be located probably in Brazil for the TCs and SubTCs that form in that basin.

    The GRS spins counter-clockwise because it is being "pushed" west by an air current north of it, and east by an air current south of it.

    Jupiter doesn't rotate uniformly across the surface due to it not being solid, this causes the storm to rotate in a counter clockwise rotation.

    If we had a category 6 and 7, to be a category 6 a hurricane would need 183 mph force winds, a category 7 needing 209 mph force winds.
