How does a hurricane become intense?

Energy is needed to keep any tropical storm alive. This energy is usually produced by hot water and steam on the surface of the ocean. At present the sea water is warm up to a depth of 50 meters, which is capable of providing energy to this cyclone. This type of atmosphere is what triggers Tau-te hurricanes.

More heat is released by condensation of water vapor, which also reduces atmospheric pressure. Cyclones form after going through several stages of a low pressure system and its intensity.
