What is the difference between a weather watch a weather advisory and a weather warning?
A severe weather watch informs you when the conditions are right for severe weather to happen, while a warning means it is happening or is imminent, and is warning you to take immediate action.
Compare and contrast a watch and a warning?
A warning is worse. It means that something (like a tornado) has been detected or the threat of one is imminent. A watch means the overall conditions are favorable to form bad weather (such as a tornado) in a general area.
How many hours are given in a hurricane warning before it actually hits?
It depends. For storms that form relatively quickly, the warning period may be a few hours, but thankfully most storms are not like that. Usually, when a hurricane warning is issued, it means that the National Hurricane Center is expecting hurricane conditions to occur in the warning area within 24 hours. However, hurricane warnings are usually issued after hurricane watches, which specify a period of 24-36 hours from the issuing of the warning to the onset of hurricane conditions.

What might happen if a hurricane warning were issued too late?
If a hurricane warning is issued too late, people will have less time to evacuate or take other precautions. As a result, more people may be killed or injured, and more property damage may result from broken windows and loose objects thrown by the wind.
Why can people be more prepared for an hurricane than they can for an earthquake?
Earthquakes strike without warning. Hurricanes are usually detected well in advance of making landfall.

What is worst a tornado watch or warning?
"Worse" is not the word, let's say "more important": Tornado warning is more important. A tornado "watch" means weather conditions are such that there is a possibility a tornado could form. But there have been no tornadoes as of yet. A Tornado warning means A tornado has been spotted/touched down in your alert area. You should take cover if a tornado warning is issued for your area; go into a cellar, or the lowest, most inner part of your house where there are no windows (a downstairs or basement bathroom is ideal). Tornado watch? Merely continue to monitor the weather broadcasts.
