This . is . important . when we're talking about ocean storms because the location of the storm determines what we call it. I. f . the storm occurs in the Atlantic Ocean and Northeast Pacific, it's called a hurricane. If the exact same type of storm occurs in the Northwest Pacific, this is a typhoon. And if we find those same storms in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean, these are called tropical cyclones. . Cyclone. NASA.

Sea level is rising and will continue to do so. Coastal storm intensity and freshwater flooding are expected to increase as the climate warms. Why Should You Care? Forecasting Much progress in social science of response to warnings, requests to evacuate, etc. Forecasters are ambassadors to meteorology Opportunity to inform public Knowledge o Getting started.
