How did Cyclone Tracy form?

Hey everyone back again with another post about Cyclone Tracy. Cyclone Tracy was formed the same way as all other cyclones do. The warm ocean in the tropical regions starts them with the temperature generally needing to be above 26.5°C. Once a cyclone has formed it can generally move over cooler waters. All cyclones lose their source of energy when they move over land or colder oceans causing there system to fail. Their system can also fail if they move into an unfavourable wind regime disturbing their systems.
