A hurricane is a "named storm". If you do not have a named storm exclusion then your wind coverage will cover hurricane damage.
A hurricane is a storm. A earthquake is movement of the earth.
The main difference between a Category 2 and a Category 4 hurricane is the wind speed. A Category 2 hurricane has sustained winds of 96-110 mph, while a Category 4 hurricane has sustained winds of 130-156 mph. Category 4 hurricanes are more intense and can cause more damage compared to a Category 2 hurricane.
The main difference between a hurricane and a tropical storm is their wind speeds. A hurricane has sustained winds of at least 74 mph, while a tropical storm has winds between 39-73 mph. Additionally, hurricanes are more organized and powerful than tropical storms.
a tornado, typhoon, cyclone, twister, and hurricane are pretty much the same.
Cyclone is simply the term used in other countries for hurricanes.

Hurricane ratings are bases on maximum sustained wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. A category 5 hurricane has winds over 156 mph.
In Australia, hurricanes are referred to as cyclones. The main difference between a cyclone in Australia and a hurricane in Florida lies in the location and naming convention; they are both severe tropical storms with strong winds that form over warm ocean waters, but cyclones typically occur in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean regions while hurricanes form in the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific Ocean regions.
A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74 to 95 mph and is expected to cause mostly minor damage. A category 5 hurricane has winds of at least 156 mph and is expected to cause catastrophic damage.
