Re: Question about Hurricane Alex

Yes, your right it formed at 30 N, I got to check my posts before I post them. The overall question remains the same though how could a hurricane devlop in a area 30N of the equator? I thought that the Coriolis force gets weaker as you get further away from the equator.
And my other question from the previous post remains the same.
