please read No7(chalky) again: its better than you think. Or where is it incorrect?

Question

RECAP: If you stand where the Earth's surface is travelling at 400mph because of the planet's spin, the air will be moving at that speed. If 'your' air is dragged northward to where the surface is moving at 390mph a westerly wind of 10mph will blow: Repeat this until you arrive at the column of rising gasifide water and air. This explains why the hurricane spins anticlockwise and how it gets its speed (but think also of the slingshot effect on the air atoms being forced to change direction). More points please, lots more are needed for the next thrilling episode, watch this space!

Answer 1

This does not explain hurricanes at all. The most powerful hurricanes are circularly symmetric and so would be drawing as much air from the north as from the south, the wind speed has to do with the pressure gradient, not the poleward movement of air. The earth's rotation is responsible for the counterclockwise spin of hurricanes, but not in the sense you are casting it. Your explanation is closer to the reason for jet streams than it is for hurricanes.
