What is worse a hurricane or a thunderstorm?
Hurricanes are typically more destructive and dangerous than thunderstorms. Hurricanes have stronger winds, heavier rain, and can cause widespread flooding, while thunderstorms are generally more localized and shorter in duration.
How long does it take for a hurricane to form from a thunderstorm?
A hurricane does not form from a single thunderstorm. A tornado does. Often a thunderstorm has upper-level rotation for at least half an hour or more before producing a tornado, however, some storms develop and become tornadic in less than 15 minutes.Hurricanes form from large, usually disorganized clusters of storms. It may take days for these clusters of storms to organize intro a tropical depression (tropical cyclone with winds under 39 mph). It will usually be several more days before such a system reaches hurricane strength (winds of at least 74 mph).
Why is a hurricane at high tide more dangerous than a hurricane at low tide?
A hurricane at high tide is more dangerous because the elevated water levels can lead to more severe storm surges, increasing the risk of coastal flooding and erosion. The combination of the hurricane's winds and the high tide can amplify the impact of the waves, overwhelming barriers and inundating coastal areas. This heightened risk can cause more extensive damage to infrastructure, homes, and ecosystems, as well as pose a greater threat to life and safety.
Is a car faster than a thunderstorm?
A typical thunderstorm moves at about 30 miles per hour but hey can move as fast as 70 mph. So it is possible for a car to move faster than a thunderstorm, but that may involve moving at speeds that are dangerous on wet roads.
How dangerous is Hurricane Sandy?
It is not a major hurricane by the technical definition, but is still quite dangerous. Currently, as of the evening of October 26, 2012 Sandy is a category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 75 mph, and is expected to hit the U.S. east coast a little bit above that strength. The storm has already claimed more than 40 lives and will likely claim more when it makes landfall.

Does a hurricane have a larger thunderstorm than a tornado?
Hurricanes themselves are much larger than any thunderstorm or tornado.
Is it dangerous to shower during a thunderstorm?
No more so than at any other time.
Are tornadoes more dangerous than a hurricane?
A hurricane over can cause more damage, deaths and injuries than a tornado. This is because hurricanes affect a larger area and bring flooding in addition to strong winds. However, tornadoes are more dangerous and potentially more destructive on a localized scale.

What is more powerful a hurricane or a tornanado?
A Hurricane is more powerful because they do indeed release much more energy than a torn. That mostly because a hurricane is much larger than a tornado. However, a tornado can be more violent than even the worst hurricane and cause more severe damage in a localized area. Hurricane winds can reach a maximum of about 190 mph and tornadoes over 300mph
Where more people killed by hurricane Katrina than great Galveston?
No. The Galveston hurricane killed several times more people then Hurricane Katrina.
Is a closed eye hurricanes more dangerous?
I'm not really sure how that would be differentiated from a hurricane with an "open" eye - either it has an eye or it doesn't, or its in some grey area in between. Hurricanes that have well-formed eyes tend to be stronger simply because their structure is well organized by that point. Most tropical storms and some hurricanes do not have an eye, or at least a well-defined eye, and that indicates that the storm is a bit weaker and less dangerous.
