Basically, a hurricane warning tells people from the radio and televisions that there is going to be a hurricane. For example in Hurricane Katrina, it was said from the radio to evacuate or if you didn't evacuate, to store loads of food and water...etc
:)
The storm is approaching and take precautions.
A Hurricane warning is the time of the storm
A hurricane watch is when you are seeing it.A hurricane alert is when it warns you about the hurricane.
A hurricane watch means that hurricane conditions are possible in the next 48 hours.
Means that there is a hurricane coming.
There are many different hurricane conditions that people should watch for including high winds. These conditions also include heavy rains, flooding, and flying objects.
The severe weather watch is when a group of meterologist decide that conditions are appropriate for an abnormally severe storm to occur. They will then alarm the public that it is likely for one of these storms to occur. Therefore, it is a good idea to be on the look out to prevent injury.
"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.
Yes, the National Hurricane Center or NHC keeps track of hurricanes.
It mainly depends on the strengthof its winds. "The term "storm" refers to both the geographic origin of these systems, which form almost exclusively in tropical regions of the globe, and their formation in Maritime Tropical air masses. The term "cyclone" refers to such storms' cyclonic nature, with counterclockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise rotation in the Southern Hemisphere." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropical_storm This site cites winds in such a storm as having a speed over 74 mph to qualify as a hurricane. "While all are large storms of tropical nature, their official storm name has to do with its wind speeds. When the storms are in their infant stages as just a general area of low pressure that has the potential to strengthen, they're usually given the name "Tropical Depression" If the storm's peak winds become greater than 39 mph, then it's now a "storm" and it gets a real name from the National Hurricane Center, like "Tropical Storm Barry." ...If the storm continues to grow and reaches wind speeds over 74 mph, it's then a hurricane" http://www.komonews.com/weather/asksteve/4347506.HTML A tropical storm begins to brew over the ocean. As it makes contact with warm ocean waters - if the temperature of the water is above 26.5 degrees Celsius (80 Fahrenheit) - the storm's heat and energy intensify. Winds rotate counterclockwise around a calm center (the "eye"). When the sustained speed of the winds reaches 74 mi (119 km) per hour, the storm is officially classified as a hurricane. The weather bureaus declare a hurricane watch when a tropical storm intensifies, and it becomes likely that a hurricane will develop within 24-36 hours. A hurricane warning is issued when hurricane conditions are expected in 24 hours or less. The severity of a hurricane in terms of its intensity is measured by the Saffir-Simpson Scale, on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being the most severe. The hurricane is ranked by its wind speed. The scale helps to estimate the amount and type of damage expected from the storm.
A hurricane warning means that hurricane conditions are expected in an area within 36 hours.A hurricane watch means that hurricane conditions are possible in the next 48 hours.The term hurricane alert does not show up in the NOAA weather glossary.
A hurricane watch means hurricane conditions are possible within the next 48 hours.
The difference between a clock and a watch is a watch is worn on the wrist, and a clock is something around your home to look at to tell the time.
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.

Warning, because the hurricane is about to make landfall.
No. A hurricane watch means that hurricane conditions are possible within 48 hours. A hurricane warning means hurricane conditions are expected in the next 36 hours. So a warning indicates a greater danger.
it doesn't predict. it warns you that a hurricane is inbound.
abiotic
When conditions are favorable for tornadoes a tornado watch is issued. However the criteria for a hurricane watch are different. A hurricane watch is issued of an existing storm is threatening an area and hurricane conditions are possible within 48 hours.
the name
A gold watch is made of gold ,on the other hand golden watch is gold in color.
