NOTE: We've guessed that
you're not using a client that supports colored tables and have tried
to compensate. Low graphics mode looks much better on clients that
do... we recommend switching to Netscape 3.0 or Microsoft Internet
Explorer.

Initial Development
the storms that become hurricanes
Hurricanes initiate from an area of
thunderstorms. These thunderstorms
are most commonly formed in one of three different ways. The first is
the InterTropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). The ITCZ is a near-solid ring
of thunderstorms surrounding the globe found in the tropics. In the diagram
below, the easterly trade winds converge near the equator and create
thunderstorms, which can be seen in the satellite image along the equator.
