A hurricane is hundreds to thousands of times larger than a tornado. The average hurricane is about 300 miles wide, with the largest exceeding 1300 miles.
The average tornado is 50-100 yards wide, with the largest being about 2.5 miles wide.
It varies for both. A hurricane is usually a few hundred miles across, though the smallest hurricane on record was measured at only 60 mile across. At the other end, some have exceeded 1,000 miles in diameter. Tornadoes are much smaller. The very largest tornado on record was 2.5 mile wide, though there is evidence of a tornado that may have been as much as 4 miles wide. The typical tornado is in the range of 50 to 100 yards wide. One tornado was recorded as having been only 3 feet wide.
Thunderstorms typically range in size from about 5 to 20 miles across.
Hurricanes are typically a few hundred miles wide and on occasion have grown to over 1,000 miles wide.
Tornadoes are typically a few dozen to a few hundred miles across, though on rare occasions may be over a mile wide.
The size of a hurricane and a tornado does not necessarily indicate the intensity of the natural disaster.
There is no given size. Hurricanes are rated based on wind speed, not size and there is no real curreclation between the strength of a hurricane and its size. A category 3 hurricane has sustained winds of 111 to 129 mph.
the relative size of the other planet is Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus.
It varies widely. Some of the smallest eyes are around two to three miles wide. A normal size eye is about 15 to 30 miles wide. A very large eye can be over 60 miles wide. Generally the stronger the hurricane the smaller the eye.
A tornado can have stronger winds than a hurricane. The very strongest tornadoes have winds just over 300mph while a the very strongest of hurricanes have winds of about 190 mph or sometimes more However, tornadoes and hurricanes that strong are very rare.
The size of a hurricane and a tornado does not necessarily indicate the intensity of the natural disaster.
A hurricane and a typhoon are the same strength, as they are the same type of storm only occurring in different regions. They are a kind of cyclone. Overall, a hurricane or typhoon is stronger than other varieties of cyclone. Due to their large size, such cyclone will release more energy than a tornado, but a tornado has stronger winds.
Magnitude means relative importance or relative size or extent - such as in the magnitude of the hurricane. Relative in this case means true to a certain degree.
No. Tornadoes don't get anywhere close to that size. The widest tornado ever recorded was 2.6 miles wide at its maximum. A hurricane, on the other hand, can easily reach a width of 300 miles.
very big
The size of a tornado is determined by the width of the area over which it produces damage. This is not to be confused with the tornado's intensity.
There isn't an exact size for a thunderstorm, but they can cover a large area of land. Every thunderstorm is different, and depending on how harsh the weather is and what the environment is like, the thunderstorm may be bigger or smaller.
The size of a tornado, or its width is determined by how wide the area of damage is. The rating of a tornado, which is not dependent on size (though there is some correlation) is based on the severity of the damage caused.
Almost any weather formation (hurricane, tornado, cloud) is capable of forming lightning due to the massive amounts of friction between the clouds in the sky. Lightning is sort of like an exponentially increased in size case of static electricity.
Relative size is an option in the style tab. It means that the size should be relative or correspond to the others.
The size of a hurricane is based on the diameter over which it produces gale force winds.
Signs of a potential tornado includes a persisten lowering of the cloud base with rotation during a thunderstorm, a cone shaped cloud extending from the cloud base, and a whirl of dust beneath that cloud base. Signs of an approaching hurricane include a drop in barometric pressure, a dense cirrus overcast, increasing wave size, showers and storms of increasing frequency and intensity, and an increase in wind speed.
