(1)Tropical cyclonic storms contain no fronts whereas the structure of extra-topical (middle-latitude) cyclonic storms is itself frontal.
(2)Tropical cyclones originate in summer and early autumn whereas the other one is most frequent in winter.
(3)If the tropical cyclonic storm enters higher latitudes, it may become extra-topical cyclone whereas the extra-tropical cyclone will never move into the tropics nor transforms into tropical cyclones.
(4)Tropical cyclones have a calm,rainless centre(eye) which is absent in the other storms.
(5) Tropical cyclones bring torrential rainfall whereas the rainfall is relatively less heavy in the other storm.
(6)The isobars of the tropical cyclones are more circular and symmetrical than those of the other storm.

SINCE THE TEMPERATURE IS HOTTER AT OR NEAR THE EQUATOR THE LIKELIHOOD OF CONVECTIVE STORMS FORMING IS MUCH MORE LIKELY AND SINCE HEAT RISES THE STORMS WILL GO HIGHER WHICH TENDS TO MAKE THEM STRONGER. THEY ALSO TEND TO FORM ON A DAILY OR TWICE DAILY PATTERN
