	Cyclone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cyclones are responsible for a wide variety of different meteorological phenomena such as hurricanes and tornadoes.
		Tropical cyclones (also known as tropical storms, hurricanes and typhoons) are cyclones which form over warm ocean waters and draw their energy from the evaporation and condensation of that water.
		Extratropical cyclones lie somewhere in between tropical cyclones and mid-latitude cyclones, drawing a portion of their energy through the evaporation and condensation of ocean water, and some if it through horizontal temperature gradients in the atmosphere.

		Eline was being steered on the northwesterly course by a subtropical ridge located to the south-southwest of the cyclone.
		Also, the basic definition of a cyclone in WMO Region 5 (Australia and the South Pacific) has the unique requirement that a depression must have gale-force winds more-or-less completely surrounding the center before the system is named as a tropical cyclone.

		A tropical cyclone is an area of low pressure over warm tropical or subtropical waters that displays an organized pattern of convection and a definite pattern of surface wind circulation.
		Tropical cyclones with maximum sustained surface winds of less than 38 miles per hour are called "tropical depressions." Once a tropical depression sustains winds of at least 39 miles per hour, it is typically upgraded to a "tropical storm" and assigned a name.
