What kind of natural disaster causes more damage for the storm surges it creates than form the high speed winds commonly associated with it?

Answer 1

Hurricanes produce damage mainly through the storm surge with wind as only a secondary contributor.

Tornadoes produce damage entirely through winds and the debris they carry. Tornadoes to not produce a storm surge.

Answer 2

Hurricanes are far larger than tornadoes, they cause damage over much larger areas. As a result, while damage is often less severe, the total amount of damage is greater. In low-lying areas right along the coast the storm surge of a hurricane can cause damage similar in severity to the very strongest tornadoes. As an example, in 2008 Hurricane Ike completely obliterated portions of Galveston, Texas.
