Have you ever heard of two hurricanes dancing with each other? It sounds strange, but it can actually happen. It's a rare and fascinating weather phenomenon known as the Fujiwhara Effect. The Fujiwhara Effect happens when two tropical cyclones, like two hurricanes, get close to one another, usually within about 900 miles. If they are similar in strength, they won't merge. Instead, they start to rotate around a common center point between them, like two dancers spinning around each other. This "dance" can have a few different outcomes.
Sometimes, the two storms will circle each other for a bit and then drift apart. But in other cases, if one storm is significantly stronger than the other, the larger hurricane can absorb the smaller one. This merger can sometimes create a single, more power
