Which effect amplifies hurricane spin in the Northern Hemisphere?

A)Coriolis force deflecting airflow
B)High sea surface temperatures reducing friction
C)Latent heat release stabilizes rotation
D)Upper-level convergence enhances outflow

💡 Explanation

The Coriolis force deflects moving air to the right in the Northern Hemisphere, initiating rotation; because this deflection acts continuously, it amplifies the initial spin, therefore storm intensity increases, rather than other stabilizing or frictional diminishing effects.
