    I thought the issue was the coriolis effect would reverse the hurricane’s spin direction? Could one survive this and reform?

      I’m wondering if the Coriolis effect is directly responsible for the spin direction of storms or if it’s only responsible for the spin of the wind currents, which then forces the storms in one direction or the other.

      If it’s indirect, then large changes in the currents might allow those storms 🤔
