<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">Weather of Arabia - Sinan Khalaf - <strong>Tropical storms</strong> often form in the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea, some of which grow stronger and develop into destructive hurricanes that make their way towards the coasts, and sometimes these conditions disappear from us for long periods.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>What are the conditions for the formation of tropical states in the Arabian Sea?</strong></h3><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Understanding the conditions that must be met for the formation of tropical conditions in the Arabian Sea facilitates the process of weather forecasting, and gives an indication of the possibility of thunderclouds developing into <strong>a tropical state</strong> or not, and these conditions include:</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h3 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Pressure drop</strong></h3><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Supports the evolution of the atmospheric system to a tropical state</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The presence of an area of low atmospheric pressure attracts winds and causes strong upward air currents with a circular rotational movement, which contributes to supporting and developing the atmospheric system.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Water temperature exceeding 27°C</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The growth and development of tropical conditions depends mainly and largely on the presence of a body of water with a depth of more than 60 meters and a water temperature of 27 degrees Celsius or more, and hot water is considered the operating fuel for this tropical system.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Weak wind shear</strong></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>Change in wind speed and direction in both vertical and horizontal directions</strong></h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> One of the important and fundamental matters in the process of developing tropical conditions is the weakness of wind shear. Wind shear is defined as the change in the speed and direction of the wind in both the vertical and horizontal directions, as these winds weaken and limit the vertical growth of cumulonimbus thunderclouds, that is, they hinder the process of increasing their thickness. The clouds thus become shallow and stratified and thus weaken the tropical system. </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/WhatsApp%20Image%202024-05-12%20at%209.08.15%20PM.jpeg" style="width: 960px; height: 1200px;" /></p>
