Which is more dangerous tornadoes or waterspouts?
Tornadoes are generally more dangerous as they are stronger than waterspouts.
Are glaciers more dangerous than tornadoes?
no they are not
Is a tornado dangerous?
All tornadoes are dangerous. Wedge tornadoes are usually stronger and thus more dangerous than smaller tornadoes, though this is not always the case.
Is a thunderstorm more dangerous than a hurricane?
It depends on the specific circumstances. Thunderstorms can produce dangerous lightning, hail, strong winds, and tornadoes, while hurricanes bring sustained strong winds, storm surge, and heavy rainfall causing flooding. Both can be dangerous, but hurricanes generally cover larger areas and last longer than individual thunderstorms.
Which tornado occurs more often?
Tornadoes occur more. While an active year might see a few dozen hurricane-strength tropical cyclones in a year, the United States alone documents an averages of more than 1,200 tornadoes annually.
Is a tornado more dangerous than a hurricane?
No because a tornado only hits a few areas before it disappears. A hurricane kills Thousands and it destroys to. NOT TRUE. Tornados are far more violent and intense than a hurricane. They only affect a small area, but if your in that area you better start praying. It's easy to survive a hurricane, but if your too close to a violent tornado, you will most likely get beheaded. Hurricanes do more damage than tornados because they are far larger, but tornados are far faster and violent. i'd much rarther have a hurricane on top of me than be anywhere near a big tornado. The only reason hurricanes kill more people is because they are far larger, and they cause flooding.
What's worse hurricane or tornado?
A hurricane is generally worse. Since they are much larger than tornadoes they can cause more damage and kill more people. e.g. A number of hurricanes have killed over 1,000 people, but only one known tornado has done the same. However, somewhat paradoxically, a tornado is more dangerous. This is because tornadoes are more violent than hurricanes, are harder to predict, and form much more quickly.
Which is larger a hurricane or a tornado?
A hurricane is much larger than a tornado. A typical hurricane is a few hundred miles across. Most tornadoes are no more than a few hundred yards wide.
Are tornadoes more dangerous than hurricanes?
In short, tornadoes are more violent than hurricanes and usually produce more severe damage, albeit over a much smaller area.
What is more powerful a hurricane or a tornanado?
A Hurricane is more powerful because they do indeed release much more energy than a torn. That mostly because a hurricane is much larger than a tornado. However, a tornado can be more violent than even the worst hurricane and cause more severe damage in a localized area. Hurricane winds can reach a maximum of about 190 mph and tornadoes over 300mph
Can a hurricane cause more destruction than a tornado?
Yes. A hurricane affects a much larger area than a tornado and so will likely cause more damage overall. Tornado damage is generally more severe than hurricane damage, but it is limited to a small area. There have been far more hurricanes than tornadoes that have caused more than $1 billion in damage.
How can a hurricane be stronger than a tornado?
For one thing, the wind speed ranges of tornadoes and hurricanes overlap. Some hurricanes produce winds in excess of 150 mph, while not all tornadoes do. However, the maximum winds speeds of tornadoes are greater than those of hurricanes. Even though a tornado can produce faster winds than any hurricane, a hurricane is many times larger than a tornado, and so releases far more energy.
