Answer:

Warm air is able to hold more moisture than cool air.

Explanation:

Warm air is able to hold more moisture than cool air, and warm water evaporates more readily than cool water.

The air and water near the Equator is warmed by the Sun, so large storms which contain large amounts of moisture are likely to form there.
