“The Impact of a Tropical Storm depends on location” How far do you agree? Tropical storms formed 5-30 degrees north of the equator‚ so if there is a largely populated area or economic centre around this latitude‚ in an area vulnerable to hurricanes‚ the impact will be increased in comparison to the tropical storm running its course over unpopulated islands or the ocean.
