counterclockwise in   Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in  Southern Hemisphere.
They are generally accompanied by some kind of   precipitation and by   stormy weather.   tornadoes
and   hurricanes are   types of cyclones, as are   typhoons, which are   storms that occur
in   western Pacific Ocean.   hurricane is   cyclone that forms over   tropical
oceans and seas and has   winds of at least seventy-four miles   hour.   hurricane rotates in   
shape of   oval or   circle.   hurricanes can cause   great environmental damage.   Hurricane
Andrew, which hit   coasts of Louisiana and southern Florida in August 1992, caused   extreme
devastation. In terms of   environmental damage,  Hurricane Andrew is one of   most devastating
hurricanes ever to hit   United States. Fourteen people died because of   Andrew's effects.
