Why aren't tornadoes and hurricanes on the moon?

Tornadoes and hurricanes are not found on the moon because the moon does not have the necessary atmosphere or weather patterns to support the formation of these weather events. Tornadoes require a combination of atmospheric instability, moisture, and wind shear, which are not present on the moon. Additionally, hurricanes typically form over warm ocean waters, which the moon lacks.
