It depends on what measure you use. If you mean a tsunami in deep ocean water, then no. In the deep ocean a tsunami can move at up to 600 mph. A tornado typically moves at about 30 mph, rarely exceeding 70 mph. Tornadic winds can get to something over 300 mph. If you mean a tsunami near shore, possibly. Near shore a tsunami may slow to a few tens of miles per hour, though the speed depends on the topography.
What else can I help you with?
What is faster hurricane or spitfire?
the spitfire is slightly faster but the hurricane had bigger guns which might have slowed it down.
What was faster spitfire or the hurricane?
The Supermarine Spitfire was faster than the Hawker Hurricane, with a top speed of over 360 mph compared to the Hurricane's top speed of around 340 mph. The Spitfire also had better overall performance characteristics, making it a more capable fighter aircraft.
What is faster a hurricane or tornado?
In terms of wind speed, tornado and hurricane winds usually fall into the same range. Tornadoes are capable of producing stronger winds than hurricanes are, however. In terms of traveling speed, tornadoes generally move faster but, again, there is a good deal of overlap.
Is a supercell stronger than a hurricane?
No. While the winds in a tornado spawned by a supercell may be faster than those in any hurricane, a supercell is small compared to a hurricane and so, as a whole, is less powerful in terms of energy released.
Are tsunamis deadlier than hurricanes?
No, Hurricanes are not stronger than tsunamis! Tsunamis are water waves than piles up to one giant wave that lasts about eight hours wiping out a whole island. Then they pick back up and keeps going to wash out other islands. Once a tsunami hit Hawaii and went to japan which is on the other side of the earth around eight hours which is faster than a jet!
Is a hurricane bigger than a tsunami?
They are completely different phenomena and cannot be compared in such a manner
Is the tsunami wave stronger than the hurricane?
Yes, the tsunami wave is stronger than the hurricane. The tsunami wave is a huge pile of water that can travel on land like one of the tsunami wave hit the states of Hawaii on march 11, 2010 off the west coast of the United States after Japan earthquake. Hurricanes are strong enough to blow houses, vehicles and boats away but then have to go back to the water to get more strength but the tsunami wave just continue traveling without having to go back to the water. The tsunami wave is much stronger than the hurricane and it is big enough to crush the whole entire building.

You have an eye but cannot see you are stronger and faster than many alive but have no limbs What are you?
A Hurricane.
Will the eye of the tsunami automaticly freeze anything in its path?
No. For one thing, a tsunami does not have an eye. A tsunami is a massive wave usually triggered by an earthquake. You may be confusing it with a hurricane or typhoon. The eye of a hurricane does not freeze anything. In fact, the air in the eye is a bit warmer than the surrounding air. The freezing eye scenario presented in The Day After Tomorrow is utterly ridiculous.
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.
Is a supercell stronger than a hurricane?
No. While the winds in a tornado spawned by a supercell may be faster than those in any hurricane, a supercell is small compared to a hurricane and so, as a whole, is less powerful in terms of energy released.
What type of storm is the most dangerous?
A Tsunami Or a hurricane can be deadley but micobursts are bad because of the lack of warning. they have winds as strong or even stronger than a hurricane anc can happen anywhere while hurricanes are limited to costal areas
Why did Japan's tsunami cause more deaths compared to Hurricane Isaac?
The main reseon is that the inindation from the tsunami was much more violent. The tsunami came in as a massive surge of water that was, in places, well over 20 feet deep. The water also came in much more violently than the storm surge of any hurricane. Isaac was rather weak as hurricanes go, The storm surge was only enough to cause some minor coastal flooding, and wind damage was moderate at most. The most damage was caused by inland flooding from heavy rain, but even that was minor compated to the inundation from the tsunami. Additionally, the people in the tsunami's path were still shaken and buildings still damage by the massive earthquake that triggered the tsunami. Finally, there was the factor of preparedness. With Hurricane Isaac, the people had several days' warning and the storm turned out to be less severe than was expected. In Japan, many people had less than a hour's warning and the tsunami was sigificantly more severe than anticipiated. In fact, it was larger than many scientists believed to be possible for that region.
