→ Weak Pressure Gradients: In the coastal regions of Brazil, the temperature differences are very low, which prevents the formation of strong low-pressure zones.
→ Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ): Near the equator in Brazil, the trade winds move vertically rather than horizontally, which weakens the circular motion required for a cyclone.
→ Weak Winds: The trade winds in this region are generally weak and lack the necessary force to create a devastating cyclonic storm.
