What are the differences in hurricanes willy willies cyclones typhoons water spouts?
Whilly willy is an Australian term for a dust devil, a type of vortex that forms on land on hot, sunny days. They are usually harmless. Waterspouts are essentially tornadoes on water, though most form by a different mechanism from ordinary tornadoes and are generally weaker. They are stronger than most dust devils, however ans often pose a hazard to small boats. A hurricane and a typhoon are essentially the same thing: topical cyclones with sustained winds of at least 74 mph. The only difference is that a hurricane is on the Atlantic or eastern Pacific while a Typhoon is in the western Pacific. Both terms are limited to tropical cyclones in the northern hemisphere. A cyclone is virtually any larger scale low pressure system with a circulation. They include hurricanes and typhoons but also include extratropical and polar storm systems, which are generally much weaker. In Parts of the southern Pacific and Indian Oceans a the term cyclone means basically the same thing as a hurricane or typhoon. One key difference is that willy willies and waterspouts are small-scale weather events while cyclones are large-scale.
Why are hurricanes called tropical cyclones in Australia?
Hurricanes are called cyclones in Australia.Contrary to some misguided opinions, they are not called 'Willy-Willies'.A 'Willy-Willy' is a dust tornado - sometimes called a 'dust devil' in other parts of the world. They usually occur in dry arid inland locations and can have a strength from a near invisible uplift draft that barely lifts a loose saltbush or tumbleweed bush to a severe type that is very visible (from the dust) and can be quite destructive.In actual fact, cyclone is the generic name for all forms of the weather phenomenon that includes hurricanes and typhoons. The term cyclones encompasses the clockwise-rotating tropical storm/low of the Pacific and the anti-clockwise equivalent in the Americas and the Asian seas. However, they also have the distinction of being named hurricanes and typhoons respectively to qualify the area of the world in which they have formed.
Are typhoons less destructive than hurricanes?
No. Typhoons and hurricanes are basically the same thing. The only differences is in where they occur. Hurricanes are in the Atlantic or eastern Pacific while typhoons are in the western Pacific

What country calls hurricanes willy-willies?
No country calls hurricanes willy-willies. A willy willy is a small to medium sized dust-devil, or rotating wind, which picks up debris and sand particles. It is completely harmless. It is not a sandstorm: neither is it restricted to deserts and sandy regions. Although it is more common in the outback, it can regularly be encountered within open suburban areas such as school grounds or parks. It is important to note that, for some time, a popular information site has perpetrated the misinformation that the Australian Bureau of Meteorology refers to a willy-willy as a cyclone near Australia. This is blatantly incorrect.
What is a hurricane called in Australia?
Yes: willy willy. That's a severe tropical cyclone. Correction: Contrary to popular belief, a willy-willy is not a severe tropical cyclone. A willy-willy is a small, harmless twister that does nothing more than collect dust and debris as it sweeps along. In the southern hemisphere, cyclones are known as cyclones. In the northern helishpere they are known as either hurricanes or, in parts of Asia, typhoons. Cyclone is the generic term for a severe tropical storm that can be categorised into varying degrees of destructiveness, according to the speed of the winds.
