hurricanes cause more damage they can also cause earthquakes and tsunamis
Hurricanes cause a lot of damage when the hit land. Each year many hurricanes cause damage to buildings.
Hurricanes and tornadoes are both types of storms, but they form under different conditions and have distinct characteristics. Hurricanes are large, organized systems that form over warm tropical waters, while tornadoes are smaller, localized systems that develop in thunderstorms. Both can cause significant damage, but they are not directly related to each other in terms of formation or behavior.
Tornadoes cause billions of dollars in damage each year. The average annual damage costs from tornadoes in the United States can range from hundreds of millions to over a billion dollars. These costs include property damage, crop loss, and infrastructure destruction.
On average tornadoes cause 60 deaths and and about $500 million dollars in damage each year.
Tornadoes don't have names, hurricanes do, and Iowa does not get hurricanes. Tornadoes are referred to by where they hit in most cases. For example, one of the worst tornadoes to hit Iowa in recent years was the Parkersburg tornado, which destroyed part of the town of Parkersburg.
The Fujita Scale rates tornadoes based on the damage they cause, ranging from F0 (light damage) to F5 (incredible damage). The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, on the other hand, categorizes hurricanes from Category 1 (minimal damage) to Category 5 (catastrophic damage) based primarily on sustained wind speeds. Both scales are essential for assessing the potential impact of severe weather events, with Fujita focusing on tornadoes and Saffir-Simpson on hurricanes. Each scale helps inform emergency response and public safety measures.
There are more tornadoes in Alabama compared to hurricanes. Alabama is part of a region known as Tornado Alley, which experiences multiple tornadoes each year. Hurricanes are less common in Alabama, but the state can still be impacted by hurricanes that make landfall along the Gulf Coast.
The kinds of weather disturbances are:typhoons,tsunamis,earthquakes,landslides,tornadoes ,and so on.
The three severe types of violet natural occurrences that can affect a region include thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hurricanes. Thunderstorms can produce intense lightning and heavy rainfall, while tornadoes can cause widespread destruction with their powerful winds. Hurricanes bring strong winds and heavy flooding, leading to significant damage and disruption. Each of these phenomena can have devastating impacts on communities and ecosystems.
i assume hurricanes cause more deaths since I know for a fact that more people die of lightening strikes than shark attacks and there aren't very many of them. Sorry if this doesn't help. try searching 'natural disasters'. NRBB
On average tornadoes cause about $1 billion in damage in the U.S. annually. Though it varies widely. This year (2011) the U.S. has suffered over $15 billion in tornado damage.
They are all type of storm and can all produce strong winds. Hurricanes and tornadoes have more in common with each other, though, than they do with ordinary thunderstorms. For example, both have eyes, or eyelike structure (in a tornado it is called a weak echo region.) They also both rotate, which is something most thunderstorms don't do. All tornadoes are produced by thunderstorms, some of these storms are produced by hurricanes.
