Fujiwhara Effect

           I learned that Fujiwhara effect is an interesting phenomenon which can happen when two or more hurricanes form very near each other. It is named after Dr. Sakuhei Fujiwhara of Japan who performed a series of experiments on water vortices from 1921 to 1923. He discovered interaction between two cyclonic vortices when they were close to each other. The vortices would rotate cyclonically about an axis connecting their centres, and also has a tendency to approach each other and then merge together.

              I want to know more about the cause of formation of two or more hurricanes (also know as Fujiwhara Effect), the effect of the said phenomena, and the warning signals they use when alerting the public.

              I would like to research on the previous countries who experienced the Fujiwhara Effect, what preparations they had made, and what damage it has caused.

              I appreciate the fact that I had learned more about this phenomena, and that I became more aware of its force.
              I can apply my learning and insights to prepare when such a phenomena occurs, and be of full knowledge when I hear it on the weather forecast. And as I publish this blog post, I can share to people what are "My Insights & Reflections" about Fujiwhara Effect.
