No hurricane has ever crossed the equator! What’s the reason behind this strange phenomenon
Hurricanes, also known as typhoons or cyclones, cannot cross the Equator due to the Coriolis effect. This phenomenon, caused by Earth's rotation, produces a force that is too weak at the Equator to maintain a hurricane's structure, leading to their dissipation.
