Cyclone season

Well today I awoke with some very interesting news. I was informed that I needed to rush to the market to buy 3 to 5 days with of food & water. Because Cyclone Nancy was about to hit. I wasn't to sure what to think about this news. When I arrived a few days ago I was told about Cyclone Meena that had hit on the 7th of Feb. This was a Class 5 cyclone. Cyclones have classification, they start at a class one, moving onward to a class 5 ++ is the worst.
You ask, what is a Cyclone? Is it like a Hurricane or a Typhoon?
Well Cyclones are large revolving tropical storms caused by winds blowing around a central area of low atmospheric pressure. In the southern hemisphere these tropical storms are called cyclones and rotate in a clockwise direction, while in the northern hemisphere cyclones are called hurricanes or typhoons and rotate in an anti-clockwise direction.
Cyclones develop over warm waters in the tropical regions created by air being heated by the sun. This causes the air to rise very rapidly and becomes saturated with moisture that condenses into large thunderclouds. Cool air rushes in to fill the void. The result of all this is a Cyclone.
Well by this time tomorrow I will be in my first cyclone.
