Your school is visiting a local bureau of the national weather service. a student asks a meteorologists why hurricanes do not form in the northern atlantic ocean. how can you expect the meteorologists to reply?

The northern Atlantic Ocean is too cold.

Explanation:

The main ingredient for hurricane formation that is absolutely necessary in order for the storms to form is a constant source of warm water. The northern Atlantic is much too cold to support the formation of hurricanes.

Another factor is the latitude. Hurricanes form in tropical regions and are gently steered by trade winds that carry them from the west coast of Africa to the east coast of the Americas. In the North Atlantic, the presence of the jet stream and strong wind shear would make hurricane formation difficult.
