How could Hurricane Alex devlop in an area that is above 5 degrees of the equator? The coriolis force is not nearly as strong at 30 degrees than at 5 degrees above the equator, right.
Also does the reason that Hurricane Alex formed in a area that was partially sub-tropical, explain the reason for it setting the record books as the strongest hurricane at the highest latitude? In another words is there a correlation between where a hurricane forms and how far north it can survive?
