It is better to day they form in low pressure areas. Hurricanes themselves are large, intense low pressure systems. Tornadoes also produce low pressure but are too small to be considered their own weather systems. They generally form in a broad area of low pressure as well.

Do both tornadoes and hurricanes form from high pressure systems?
No. Like most forms of violent weather, hurricanes and tornadoes are associated with low pressure.
What atmospheric pressure causes hurricanes?
Hurricanes form from areas of low atmospheric pressure.
Do tornadoes or hurricanes occur in the tropics?
Both can occur in the tropics, though tornadoes are more common in temperate areas. All hurricanes form in the tropics but they can move into temperate regions.
Why type of land do tornadoes and hurricanes form over?
Tornadoes can form over just about any sort of terrain but tend to be more common in flat or gently rolling areas. Hurricanes can only form over warm ocean water.
Why aren't tornadoes and hurricanes on the moon?
The moon has no atmosphere for tornadoes, hurricanes or any type of storm to form in.
Tornadoes and hurricanes develop over which of the following?
Hurricanes form over warm ocean water while tornadoes usually form over land.
Do both tornadoes and hurricanes form from high pressure systems?
No. Like most forms of violent weather, hurricanes and tornadoes are associated with low pressure.
What atmospheric pressure causes hurricanes?
Hurricanes form from areas of low atmospheric pressure.
Do tornadoes form when there is low pressure?
Tornadoes are themselves small low pressure areas, and generally form with low pressure systems. Most low pressure systems, however, do not produce tornadoes.
Do tornadoes or hurricanes occur in the tropics?
Both can occur in the tropics, though tornadoes are more common in temperate areas. All hurricanes form in the tropics but they can move into temperate regions.
What do hurricanes and tornadoes form over?
Hurricanes form over warm ocean water. Tornadoes can form just about anywhere.
Why type of land do tornadoes and hurricanes form over?
Tornadoes can form over just about any sort of terrain but tend to be more common in flat or gently rolling areas. Hurricanes can only form over warm ocean water.
Why aren't tornadoes and hurricanes on the moon?
The moon has no atmosphere for tornadoes, hurricanes or any type of storm to form in.
Does a hurricane come before a tornado?
No. While many hurricanes do produce tornadoes, most tornadoes are the result of storm systems other than hurricanes. Addtionally, the tornadoes that do form in hurricanes usually form along the front part of the storm.
Tornadoes and hurricanes develop over what?
Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water. Tornadoes usually form over land.
What type of system is associated with tornadoes?
Tornadoes form from thunderstorms usually associated with mid-latitude low pressure systems, sometimes called frontal lows. They can also form with other systems such as hurricanes, though.
Where can you find tornadoes and hurricanes-?
Tornadoes can be found on land, mostly like in the Tornado Alley area such as Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas. Hurricanes can be found out in the ocean and coast areas primarily in tropical regions.
