Will do! Planning on making an overview of Florida and the tornadoes our state saw in 2024. Likely won't go over the whole outbreak, but will absolutely cover the major ones mentioned in this video.
This video helped introduce me to your channel- I appreciate a lot of your content even though a lot of it may not pertain to me as a new yorker. Keep up the good work!
In the Southern Hemisphere, their primary season for Tropical Cyclones tends to last from November-December into April/May. Specifically in the Southwest Indian Ocean (the region where Chido occured), their cyclone season starts on November 15th and ends on April 30th. The reason they see cyclones during this time of year compared to our tropical cyclones is that the seasons are always opposite of each other depending on the hemisphere of the Earth. During our winter up north, its their summer down south. This is due to the Earth's position relative to the sun, along with the tilt of its axis. In terms of why it happened so early in their season, I can't say for certain. From what I've read, their "peak season" tends to be closer to February or March. Likely it was due to similar factors we see in our ocean basins, extremely warm ocean temperatures and other favorable conditions that lead to tropical cyclone development (such as low vertical wind shear) occurring early in the season. We saw something similar happen during our season with Hurricane Beryl, becoming the earliest Category 5 Hurricane on record in the Atlantic Ocean. If ocean temperatures are above average worldwide (which they are in many areas), it makes sense how a similar event could happen down south. I hope this helped answer your question!
Great overview
Beryl utterly devastated parts of my country as a Cat 4, the first storm of such intensity in our history. What a heartbreaking catastrophe it was
Hey, please talk about hurricane Milton’s tornado in another video. I would love to see it.
