Tornadoes and hurricanes develop over what?
Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water. Tornadoes usually form over land.
What storm forms over water and is destructive?
Hurricanes
Does Minnesota get hurricanes or tornadoes?
Minnesota gets tornadoes but not hurricanes. Hurricanes form over wam ocean water and do not last very long over land. Minnesota is much too far from the ocean.
How a storm like a hurricane or a tornado speed up the process of erosion?
Hurricanes often cause severe flooding. The water moving over land causes erosion. Waves from hurricanes can erode beaches. The winds in tornadoes have sometimes been known to scour soil away, but this is rare, only occurring in the most violent tornadoes. Both tornadoes and hurricanes can destroy trees and other vegetation, which leaves the soil vulnerable to erosion.
Can hurricans becaused by tornadoes if they hit the ocean?
No, a tornado the moves onto water simply becomes a waterspout. A tornado is far to small and short-lived to produce or significantly affect something as large as a hurricane. However, hurricanes often produce tornadoes in their outer storm bands as they make landfall.
Can hurricanes and tornadoes are both spinning stormes that start over water?
No. Hurricanes start over water and tornadoes are on land.
What is different about the places where hurricanes start and the places where tornadoes starts?
Hurricanes are tropical storm systems that form only over warn ocean water. Tornadoes are less limited. They usually form on land in temperate climates, but they can occur on water (in which case they are called waterspouts) and in tropical regions.
Can tornados give rise to hurricanes?
No, tornadoes are far to small and short lived to produce or influence something as large as a hurricane. Hurricanes form from large (synoptic scale) storm system over water ocean water. However hurricanes often do cause tornadoes.
Do tornadoes produce huge waves or storm surges?
No, tornadoes do not produce waves or storm surges. Tornadoes are violent rotating columns of air that typically occur over land and do not form over bodies of water like oceans or seas where waves or storm surges are generated.
What do hurricanes and tornadoes form over?
Hurricanes form over warm ocean water. Tornadoes can form just about anywhere.
Do hurricanes let off tornados?
No. Tornadoes are on land. Hurricanes are storms on water.
Tornadoes and hurricanes develop over what?
Hurricanes develop over warm ocean water. Tornadoes usually form over land.
Why are they called hurricanes and not tornadoes?
Tornadoes and hurricanes are two different kinds of storm. A tornado is a small-scale violent vortex of wind that can develop during a severe thunderstorm. A hurricane is an intense, large-scale low-pressure system that forms over tropical ocean water.
Are tornadoes and hurricanes formed the same way?
No. Tornadoes and hurricanes form in completely different ways and operate on different scales. In very simple terms, hurricanes form when clusters of storms over tropical oceans gains strength and form an organized, large scale and violent storm system. Tornadoes form when rotation within an individual thunderstorm tightens and intensifies into a small-scale but very violent whirlwind.
