For the most part they are about the same, but in extreme cases it is believed that tornadoes can produce lower pressures. Note that lower pressure actually makes a storm more intense.

Which has a faster air pressure fall between a hurricane or tornado?

A tornado produces a greater pressure drop over a shorter distance than a hurricane.


What is similar about the air pressure in a hurricane and a tornado?

Both produce intense low pressure.


What kind of air pressure is in a tornado and hurricane?

Tornadoes and hurricanes both produce low pressure.


Would the air pressure in the center of a hurricane be lower or higher than standard air pressure?

higher


Why does air rush into a tornado?

Air rushes into a tornado due to the low pressure at the center of the storm. The surrounding higher pressure air flows in to fill the low pressure area, creating the strong winds characteristic of a tornado.


How does air pressure changes in tornado?

The air pressure drops sharply in a tornado


Is air pressure inside a tornado is lower than outside a tornado?

The air pressure in a tornado is lower than that outside the tornado. That is why the wind blows toward the funnel.


What type of air pressure is associated with a hurricane?

A hurricane is associated with low air pressure.


What is tornado air pressure?

The air pressure in a tornado is lower than that of its surrounding but the pressure difference varies with the strength of the tornado. The greater the pressure difference, the stronger the tornado. The greatest pressure drop recorded from a tornado was 100 millibars or about 10%.

Is hurricane and tornado in a bottle the same thing?

If you mean a hurricane in a bottle then yes, a hurricane in a bottle and a tornado in a bottle are the same thing. In shape, however, the vortex bears more resemblance to a tornado than a hurricane.


What part of a storm has the lowest surface air pressure?

The center or the "eye". Think of the Hurricane as a vortex that is sucking things up like a tornado. The winds are so powerful that you don't really see it sucking. But that is why the sea rises as it approaches the coast. The low pressure is causing the water level to rise higher.
