A hurricane is several hundred miles in diameter, while a tornado typically ranges from 50 to 500 yards in diameter.
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.
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.
Winter storm is another word for this group tornado hurricane blizzard and thunderstorm
No. While they are both spinning storms, tornadoes, unlike hurricanes, can and frequently do form over land.
A tornado and a hurricane can't exactly collide as they operate on entirely different scales. Hurricanes are large-scale storm systems while tornadoes are relative small, but violent whirlwinds produce by thunderstorms. Some of the thunderstorms in the outer bands of a hurricane can even spawn tornadoes. So a tornado can occur within the storm bands of a hurricane without being much different from an ordinary tornado.
It can't. A hurricane can't become a tornado.
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.
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.
It would have to be a hurricane, as tornadoes do not have names.
a tornado storm can be formed from a hurricane
