Following are the major theories of origin of cyclones: 

1. Local Warming Theory: According to this theory, the areas where the heat is high or the temperature is high, the air starts getting heated up fast. Hot air rises and cyclonic conditions arise due to the development of the center of low air pressure. 

2. Dynamic Theory: Vortex is produced in the lower layers of the atmosphere due to several reasons which cause the cyclone to be produced. 

3. Polar Front Theory: According to this theory, the emergence of the cyclones is based on the formation of front. The fronts created by the presence of different air – masses form the cyclone.
