Do hurricanes start in Africa

Answer 1

The northwestern edge of Africa is consumed with forest that is saturated with rain forest style rainfall mainly due to the clouds that form from the cool draft from the south mixed with the hot warm breeze pushed down from Mali and Niger. This mixture not only creates large deposits of rainfall on the northwester part of Africa but sometimes this mixture gets pushed into the ocean, condenses more and forms massive large clouds that are pushed past Ghana, Cote D'lvoire and Liberia. Once the jet way that runs past these countries picks up the condensing clouds, the coast of Africa acts as a slingshot as the jet lag pushes the storm at a high rate of Africa causing in most cases a rotating motion due to the shape of Africa as the clouds move quickly along the coast bouncing out into the ocean. If the storm is shot off fast enough, with enough momentum the storm is picked up by other jet streams that normally run from the north-south part of South America, to Jamaica, Cuba, and into the Gulf of Mexico. With the rotation already into effect, the warmer the waters the storm reaches the faster the storm will spin due to the speed in which the Storm grows.
