Yes. It is actually fairly common for hurricanes to produce tornadoes as they make landfall.

How many people have experienced a hurricane once in their lives versus how many people have experienced a tornado once in their lives?
there have been more in a hurricane
When did Hurricane Glenda occur?
The name 'Glenda' has been used more than once for indicating a hurricane. There was a hurricane Glenda in 1963 and there was a hurricane Glenda in 1969.
What can form with little or no warning a tornado or a hurricane?
That would be a tornado. Once the process starts, a tornado can form in a matter of seconds. Hurricanes, by contrast, usually take several days to form and are easy to track.
What would it be like to be inside a tornado?
The eye of a hurricane is the axis about which the air rotates. It is a place of low wind and apparently, very peaceful, compared the the rest of the hurricane. The peace is short lived however. As the eye of the hurricane moves, that spot will once again be engulfed in the winds that cause destruction and injury.
Where on land do hurricanes happen?
No, a hurricane is a very different type of storm from a tornado. A hurricane is a large, organized, and destructive system of thunderstorms that developed of tropical ocean water. The average hurricane is 300 miles wide. A tornado is a small (in weather terms), violent vortex of air that generally occurs on land. A tornado forms from a single storm cell and is 50 yards wide on average. Hurricanes, however, can produce tornadoes at landfall.
Can natural disasters occur at once?
Yes. Not likely Though. Most Likely If There is An Earthquake Near A Coast There Would Be A Hurricane After.
What differences are there in forcasting a tornado and a hurricane?
It ultimately comes down to some fundamental differences between tornadoes and hurricanes. A hurricane is its own large scale, self-sustaining storm system. As such a hurricane usually takes a few days to develop and will last for several days to weeks. A tornado is a small-scale vortex dependent on a parent thunderstorm, which in turn is usually part of a larger storm system. The whole process of tornado formation takes less than an hour, and the tornado itself can form in seconds. The duration of a tornado is usually measured in minutes. It is not uncommon for a single storm system to spawn multiple tornadoes. Hurricane forecasts generally start with monitoring clusters of storms that have the potential to become hurricanes in the coming days. Once a system becomes a tropical storm or tropical depression, meteorologists will issue advisories and attempt to forecast the path and intensity of the storm up to five days in the future. Hurricane watches can be issued up to 48 hours in advance and warnings can be issued 36 hours in advance. Because tornadoes occur on much smaller scales of time and space than hurricanes, they are harder to forecast. Typically, forecasts start with assessing regional risk. Meteorologists see where general conditions are favorable for the formation of tornadoes. In areas that have more than a marginal risk of tornadoes, such forecasts often refer to the potential for an outbreak of tornadoes. When conditions are favorable enough for tornadoes, meteorologists will issue a tornado watch the day that the tornadoes are expected to occur. Such watches outline regions where tornadoes are most likely to occur, but do not make forecasts for particular locations. A tornado warning is issued if a tornado is detected or if there is a storm with a good chance or producing one. The average lead time for a tornado warning is about 15 minutes.
Would a hurricane ever hit lubbock?
No. Hurricanes form over the ocean and don't last very long once they hit land. So, Lubbock is too far inland to get hurricanes. It is' however, in a tornado prone region, and has even been hit by an F5 tornado.
What is Americans like?
The waves in America can sometimes very strong but not soo much as how there Tornadoes form. Like in America, once there was a tornado named Hurricane Ctrianamgadratkolup. It was named after all the mess it made.
Can a hurricane hit 1 place more that once?
the simple answer is yes. although it can not hit the same place 2 times at the same time, the hurricane can return, possibly in the next year. that is why some hurricanes are named and are said to return.
