Two things are necessary to start a cir cular storia: a quiet, sheltered, windless area and a hot sun.. When these two things combine, a typhoon is invariably started. If the earth's blanket of air re volved with the earth there would be areas of perpetual tyghoon, and

When the birth place of the storm is surrounded at fairly close range by hills and rock forests and cliffs, the storm soon breaks up. When it has the open sea for a playground, it grows in size and violence, gradually drifting northward. pushed by the routing quiet air which it is disturbing, until its strength kanes and the backlash of its own fury drives it north-cost and out to sen again, dying as it strike, the cold air currents of the 10th parallel.

The physical Inws involved are the simpl ones that bented-air rises and that two! budies cannot occupy the same space et the same time: The hot sun beats down
the still air and over-heats it. Imme diately it begins to rise, leaving a partial vacuum. Cooler air from all sides moves in to fill up the depresion; bat air from all sides at ance conneé reach it; so a whirl of air forms round the hot area as water pink out of a bath tub whirls down the pipe. In this case the air whirls up stead of down, pulling up the sea sad treasing the vacuum itself, Once Ermly established, this air dhly starts to roll westward, and the chief mischief is on its way. The typhoon itself travels very slowly--usually between fire and ten miles an hour-but its whirling care has a spood of over 120 miles an hour.
