Hurricanes can travel for thousands of miles over warm water, but rapidly they lose their strength when they move over a large land mass or over cool water. Why? Explain by selecting all true statements. O As the amount of water vapor in the storm decreases, its energy decreases. Water condenses from moist air when it cools. O Moisture in the air "powers" hurricanes. As the amount of water vapor in the storm increases, its energy decreases. Water evaporates from moist air when it cools.
