Keywords "Caribbean sea" if you look at the second link it says "Northern Hemisphere". The first link tells you which cyclones for which hemisphere.

anonymous · Answer

tropical cyclone?

anonymous · Answer

Well , I'm going to look around and see if they can be considered tropical cyclones. But a direct quote from the first link: "In the northern hemisphere, where cyclones occur in the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean, they are called hurricanes"

anonymous · Answer

A tropical cyclone is a rapidly-rotating storm system characterized by a low-pressure center, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain.

anonymous · Answer

The question didn't give enough information to determine that. So I would personally go with hurricane. But do a google search to confirm it. Goodluck.
