Hurricanes need very warm moist air to form. The amount of moisture needed can only be found over warm ocean water.
Hurricanes gain get their energy from the large amounts of moisture that eveporate from warm ocean water. There is not enough moisture over land for hurricanes to form or sustain themselves.
Tornadoes develop over land, typically in the central United States within a specific type of thunderstorm called a supercell. Hurricanes develop over warm ocean waters near the equator, usually in the Atlantic Ocean. Both tornadoes and hurricanes are powerful natural disasters capable of causing significant damage.

Hurricanes do not form near the equator because the Coriolis effect is weak at the equator, which is necessary for the rotation that drives the formation of hurricanes. Additionally, they do not form over cold ocean waters, as the warm water provides the energy needed for the storms to develop.
Hurricanes use the warm moist ocean air as an energy source so as soon as it hits land the moist air is no longer there. Although hurricanes lose energy over land, they still do devastating amounts of damage.
Yes, both tornadoes and hurricanes typically weaken over land as they lose their source of warm ocean water. The friction of land and less favorable atmospheric conditions for development contribute to the decrease in intensity.
Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water. Tornadoes usually form over land.
Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water while tornadoes usually form over land.
No, tornadoes usually develop over land. Hurricanes develop e over warm water.

Hurricanes weaken when they move over land.
Hurricanes develop over warm seas.
Hurricanes don't form in countries because they cannot develop over land. Most countries that border an ocean in or near the tropics, generally on the west side of the ocean, can get hurricanes.
Yes. Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water.

No. Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water and weaken rapidly if they hit land. Illinois is too far inland to get hurricane, but it can get showers and storms from their remnants.
Hurricanes can only develop over warm ocean water. Tornadoes can form on water but usually form on land.
