A hurricane is several hundred miles in diameter, while a tornado typically ranges from 50 to 500 yards in diameter.
Tornadoes are smaller in scale compared to hurricanes and are typically embedded within them. So while a tornado can form within or near a hurricane, a direct collision between a tornado and a hurricane as two separate weather events is highly unlikely.
No, hurricanes and tornadoes are different weather phenomena. A hurricane is a large rotating storm system that forms over warm ocean waters and has low pressure at its center. A tornado, on the other hand, is a rapidly rotating column of air that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground. A "hurricane in a bottle" is a popular science experiment that demonstrates the principles of hurricanes, while a "tornado in a bottle" demonstrates the principles of tornado formation.
The number of houses destroyed by a tornado can vary widely depending on factors such as the tornado's intensity, path, and duration. On average, a strong tornado can potentially destroy dozens to hundreds of homes in its path.
While rare, it is possible for a tornado to form within a hurricane. These tornadoes, known as "tornadoes embedded in hurricanes," can be particularly dangerous due to the already intense weather conditions from the hurricane.
the rain could block a game a tornado could kill someone a hurricane can destroy a whole state or cause a tornado
It can't. A hurricane can't become a tornado.
Flying a flag in a tornado or hurricane is dangerous because the strong winds can easily damage the flag, causing it to become a projectile that can harm people or property. Additionally, it is not necessary to display a flag in these extreme weather conditions, as safety should be the top priority.
No, a hurricane is a huge storm hundreds of miles wide. A tornado is tiny by comparison.
a tornado because of when it hit it it keeps going but a hurricane will stop at land
The duration of Hurricane Ivan tornado outbreak is 48 hours.
The duration of Hurricane Georges tornado outbreak is 144 hours.
Hurricanes are the best of three natural disasters. Tornadoes destroy houses and earthquakes destroy everything. Hurricanes are only massive winds and rain.
No, a hurricane is not a tornado over water. A tornado and a hurricane are quite different. A hurricane is a large-scale self-sustaining storm pressure system, typically hundreds of miles wide. A tornado is a small-scale vortex dependent on a parent thunderstorm rarely over a mile wide. A tornado on water is called a waterspout.
There is no conflict between a hurricane and a tornado. In fact, hurricanes often produce tornadoes. However, if you were to somehow pitch the force of a hurricane against the force of a tornado, the hurricane would "win" without being significantly affected. Although a tornado can have faster winds than a hurricane, hurricanes are much larger and have several orders of magnitude more energy than a tornado.
Zero. If you are killed in a hurricane, you are already dead, so you can't be killed by a tornado.
Overall a hurricane has much more energy. Mostly because a hurricane is hundreds of times larger than a tornado.
