Hurricanes are much larger than tornadoes, and thus cause damage over a larger area, meaning more homes destroyed, and more people in harm's way. Tornado damage can be more severe, but it is localized along a rather narrow path.
What else can I help you with?
Are hurricanes longer than tornadoes?
Tornadoes are both much larger than tornadoes and last much longer.
Can tornadoes be formed by hurricanes?
Yes. It is farily common for hurricanes to produce tornadoes. However, a hurricane will rarely produce tornadoes stronger than EF2.
Which has higher wind speed hurricanes or tornadoes?
There is actually a good deal of overlap. The winds of most hurricanes and tornadoes and hurricanes fall into the same range. However, the strongest tornadoes have faster winds than the strongest hurricanes.
Does lightning kill more people than Hurricanes or tornadoes?
No, lightning typically kills fewer people than hurricanes or tornadoes. On average, lightning causes around 30-60 deaths per year in the United States, while hurricanes and tornadoes can cause hundreds of deaths in a single event.
Are hurricanes large tornadoes?
no hurricanes differ from tornadoes
Are hurricanes worse than tornadoes or are tornadoes worse than hurricanes?
This cannot be answered simply, as both hurricanes and tornadoes vary greatly in how bad they are. The impacts of both tornadoes and hurricanes can range from negligible to devastating. That said, the very worst hurricanes can be far deadlier and more destructive than the worst tornadoes.
What about hurricanes and tornadoes is true Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes Hurricanes can kill people but tornadoes cannot Hurricanes have strong winds?
Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes. Both hurricanes and tornadoes can be deadly, although hurricanes are more likely to cause widespread destruction due to their larger size and duration. Both hurricanes and tornadoes have strong winds, but hurricanes typically have more sustained, powerful winds over a larger region.
Which of the following statements about hurricanes and tornadoes is true hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes hurricanes can kill people but tornadoes cannot hurricanes have strong winds?
The statement "Hurricanes cover a larger area than tornadoes" is true. "Hurricanes have strong winds" is also true unless there is a second part to it. Both hurricanes and tornadoes kill people.

What storms cover large areas tornadoes or hurricanes?
Hurricanes cover large areas. Tornadoes are much smaller.
Do tornadoes relate to hurricanes?
Not really. Although hurricanes and tornadoes have some notable similarities, they are completely different phenomena. It is not uncommon for hurricanes to produce tornadoes, but most tornadoes are not a result of hurricanes.
Do tornadoes have stronger winds than hurricanes?
In most cases the wind speeds fall into the same range. However, it is not uncommon for tornadoes to produce winds in excess of 150 mph, which are rarely attained by hurricanes. The most violent tornadoes do produce stronger winds than even the most intense hurricanes.
What can hurricanes have?
hurricanes can have tornadoes.
