"Scariest" is entirely a matter of personal opinion. However, New Mexico does not get hurricanes can its tornadoes are relatively weak. The scariest events there are probably the occasional dust storms.

Are tornadoes and hurricanes climates?
No. Tornadoes and hurricanes are weather event. Climate is the overall weather pattern over the course of decades, millenia, and eons.
Can a tornado destroy a hurricane?
Hurricanes don't turn into tornadoes because these two weather phenomena are formed by entirely different processes. However, tornadoes are frequently spawned by hurricanes and will go through their short life cycle as the hurricane makes landfall.
What is a meteorological event?
The definition of a weather event is a something that occurs that is different from regular weather. This can include thunderstorms, hurricanes, cyclones, blizzards, waterspouts, tornadoes, and floods.
Are tornadoes and hurricanes common or uncommon?
They are rare compared with most other types of weather event, but they happen every year.
Why does the US have more damages from hurricanes and tornadoes then Canada?
Hurricanes are a tropical weather event and rarely make it as far north as Canada. Even when they do they are rarely very strong. The climate of the United States is generally warmer than that of Canada, making it more prone to the violent storms that produce tornadoes
Can a hurrricane tornado and earthquake happen at the same time?
Potentially. It is actually fairly common for hurricanes to produce tornadoes. While tornadoes and hurricanes are weather events, earthquakes are geologic and are completely unrelated to weather. Nothing would actually prevent a hurricane or tornado from striking at the same time as an earthquake, but such an event would be entirely by coincidence and therefore extremely unlikely.
Can tornadoes combined?
Tornadoes can merge, though it is a rare event.
Who makes tornadoes?

What is being done about tornadoes?

Are tornadoes a weathering event or geological event?
Tornadoes are a weather event rather than geologic event, as they originate from processes in the atmosphere. However, they are not sigificant contributors to weathering.
Why can't present day technology answer all the questions regarding hurricanes and tornadoes?
Hurricanes and especially tornadoes are influenced a a number of complex and often small factors that can be difficult to measured accurately. Tornadoes are especially hard to study because of how small they are compare to other weather events, and how quickly they form and die. Studying them involves having expensive equipment to be in the right place and at the right time for a hard to predict event under difficult and working conditions.
How many tornadoes hit Georgia?
