∙ 10y agoNo. All hurricanes are cyclones, but not all cyclones are hurricanes. A cyclone is a large-scale low pressure system with a defined circulation that rotates counterclockwise if it is in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. There are several types of cyclone including polar lows, mid-latitude cyclones, and tropical cyclones. A hurricane is an intense tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 mph (119 km/h).

∙ 10y agoNo. A hurricane is a cyclone, but not all cyclones are hurricanes. A cyclone is a large scale low pressure system with a defined rotation. A hurricane is specifically an intense tropical cyclone that gets its energy from warm ocean water. However, there are other types of cyclone including mid-latitude cyclones and polar lows, which are powered by different mechanisms.

The only difference is if the storm is in the northern Atlantic Ocean or northeastern Pacific Ocean it is called a hurricane. If it is in the northwestern Pacific ocean it is called a typhoon.

A tornado is a small scale vortex that is dependent on a larger parent storm.

Tornadoes are small-scale but violent circulations that develop from severe thunderstorms.
Cyclones are large-scale independent weather systems that often bring precipitation and storms, but are not necessarily violent or severe.
A hurricane is a violent tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 mph.
