It can cause massive inland flooding from all the rain it produces. Also the storm surge on the coast can wash away many homes and go quite a ways inland. Landslides from the rain are also the problem. Diseases from the flooding are another problem. Washed away crops. etc....
Both tornadoes and hurricane have very powerful winds that can tear apart buildings and vegetation, and produce highly dangerous flying debris. Though flying debris in hurricanes is less of an issue.
The worst winds in a hurricane is inside the eye of the hurricane.
A hurricane They produce STRONG winds, tornadoes, severe thunder storms, ect.
No, tornadoes can produce winds faster than in any hurricane. There is actually a substantial amount of overlap between hurricane and tornado winds. Winds for an EF0 tornado start at 65 mph and winds in the strongest tornadoes have been recorded at 302 mph. Hurricane force winds start at 74 mph. Hurricanes have had sustained winds as fast as 190 mph with gusts recorded up to 253 mph.
Yes and no. A hurricane is a type of cyclone, but is the most powerful variety. A hurricane is defined as a tropical cyclone with sustained winds of at least 74 mph. While a few other types of cyclone have achieved winds comparable to those of a category 1 hurricane, hurricane winds can exceed 150 mph. Only a few other types of winds event can produce such winds (such as tornadoes and microbursts), but non of those quite qualify as cyclones. Gay no one cares about this crap
The strongest winds of a hurricane are in the eye wall.
Yes. While hurricanes weaken after making landfall, they may still produce dangerous winds for hours afterward.
The highest winds typically come from a hurricane. Hurricanes are larger systems with sustained wind speeds that can reach over 150 mph, while tornadoes are more localized and have shorter durations but can produce winds over 200 mph in extreme cases.
The winds of a hurricane must be at least 119 km/h.
Hurricane Katrina had peak winds of 175 mph.
They don't. While it is fairly common for a hurricane to produce tornadoes, most tornadoes are not associated with hurricanes. The thunderstorms that produce tornadoes may produce strong, even hurricane-force winds, but that does not make them hurricanes.
The eyewall of a hurricane contains the strongest winds and most intense precipitation, making it the most destructive part of the storm. The converging winds within the eyewall can produce violent updrafts and downdrafts, leading to widespread damage from powerful winds and heavy rainfall.
