Can their be tornadoes hurricanes and earthquakes at the same time?

Yes, but the chances of such an occurrence are extremely low. Hurricanes often produce tornadoes, but more often in their outer regions beyond the area of hurricane conditions (sustained winds of at least 74 mph). Hurricanes and tornadoes are not related to earthquakes in any way known to science. Many area that are prone to large earthquakes to not typically see hurricanes or tornadoes very often.
