It depends on the cyclone, and the tornado. In some cases cyclone winds and tornado winds fall into the same range. However, tornado winds are generally stronger. By definition, a tornado must produce winds strong enough to cause damage; the same is not true of a cyclone. The very strongest tornadoes produce winds in excess of 300 mph, the fastest winds on earth.
Cyclones are far larger. Cyclones are hundreds of miles across while tornadoes are usually less than a quarter of a mile wide.
yes
Some cyclones produce tornadoes, but most do not.
They are not. Tornadoes are much smaller than cyclones. A true cyclone is generally a few hundred miles across while tornadoes are rarely over a mile wide. Tornadoes are smaller because they form within individual thunderstorms while cyclones are their own weather systems.
Cyclones spin counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere.
The term cyclone refers to a wide variety of weather phenomena. Many cyclones are not particularly violent, though tropical cyclones (hurricanes and typhoons) generally are. Generally speaking tornadoes are more violent than cyclones but cyclones cover a much larger area and so release much more energy.
Informally some people do call them cyclones, by this is technically incorrect. While they share some traits, tornadoes and cyclones are different types of weather pattern.
No. Tornadoes and cyclones are different things. A cyclone is a large-scale low pressure system while a tornado is a small-scale vortex within a thunderstorm. Most cyclones are mid-latitude cyclones.
No, tornadoes are associated with cyclones and not anti-cyclones. Tornadoes typically form in association with severe thunderstorms within a cyclonic circulation pattern. Anti-cyclones are areas of high pressure with descending air, which are typically not conducive for tornado formation.
A cyclone is bigger than a tornado by far, but a tornado is usually more violent.
Cyclones produce thunderstorms that can potentially produce tornadoes. Mid latitude cyclones often produce fronts from their rotation by forcing contrasting air masses together. Thunderstorms often form along these fronts. This is how most tornadoes form. Anticyclones generally tend to suppress thunderstorms ans thus tornadoes rather than produce them.
A tornado and a tropical cyclone often have winds in the same range 0f 60-190 mph. However the highest tornadic winds can exceed 300 mph, much stronger than those of the strongest cyclones, which get up to about 190 mph.
