No. A tornado is worse than an earthquake because it is VERY unlikely you will be in the spot the earthquake mainly hits (the ripping/open ground which people are most worried about.) Places where earthquakes usually hit are usually built to stand a 7 or lower point earthquake. Tornadoes, however, you can not save your valuables and the tornado keeps moving, unlike an earthquake. Tornadoes are very much worse
Yes. A tropical storm has sustained winds of 39-73 mph. A tropical depression has winds of less than 39 mph.
A hurricane is its own storm system. They arise from large scale low pressure areas and thunderstorm complexes that organize and intensify over the ocean. Tornadoes, by contrast, are the result of the interactions of relatively small scale wind currents within individual thunderstorms.
Not necessarily. "Superstorm" is does not have a real definition. The popular media have applied it to a number of powerful storms of different types, though usually a storm that the media labels a "superstorm" will have a worse impact than a typical tropical storm. However, some tropical storms, such as Tropical Storm Allison in 2001, can have every severe impacts.
No. A typhoon is neither underwater, not a tornado. Rather, a typhoon is essentially the same thing as a hurricane. It is a large and intense tropical storm system that brings powerful winds, torrential rain, and large waves. A typhoon is much larger than a tornado and is its own self-sustaining weather system.
They are both tropical cyclones. A tropical cyclone with wind speeds less than 39 mph is a tropical depression. A tropical depression lacks the familiar shape and eye of the more severe tropical cyclones A tropical storm is a tropical cyclone has wind speeds between 39 mph and 73 mph. While it has the familiar spiral shape it does not have the well defined eye of a hurricane. A hurricane is a tropical cyclone with wind speeds in excess of 74 mph.
Yes. A tropical storm has sustained winds of 39-73 mph. A tropical depression has winds of less than 39 mph.
No. A tropical storm is a large cyclonic storm system that forms over warm ocean water and produces winds from 39 to 73 mph. With further strengthening a tropical storm can become a hurricane. A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of thunderstorm to the ground. Tornadoes are a very different phenomenon from tropical storms. First and foremost is that a tropical storm is its own storm system while a tornado is a relatively small vortex dependent on a parent thunderstorm. Additionally tornadoes usually form on land and are more common in temperate latitudes than tropical.
Generally not. A tropical storm is the same type of storm as a hurricane except weaker. A tropical storm has sustained winds ranging from39 to 73 mph. One winds hit 74 mph or higher it is considered a hurricane.
Not necessarily. Higher temperatures do increase the chance of a stronger tornado forming, but not necessarily. Scientists still don't really understand why one storm produces a tornado while another doesn't or why one tornado is stronger than another.
No. A severe thunderstorm watch and a tornado watch would of course be stronger than a flash flood watch.
A blizzard is a storm that brings heavy snow fall that has winds that rarely exceed 60 mph or more miles per A tornado has winds that can reach 200mph or more. blizzards cause less destruction and a tornado can cause a lot of destruction On average tornadoes kill more people than blizzards So a tornado is stronger than a blizzard.
A gust storm
A hurricane is its own storm system. They arise from large scale low pressure areas and thunderstorm complexes that organize and intensify over the ocean. Tornadoes, by contrast, are the result of the interactions of relatively small scale wind currents within individual thunderstorms.
It isn't. An earthquake releases far more energy than a tornado.
No all tropical storms rated as Hurricanes, Cyclones or Typhoons are stronger than any normal cyclonic storm.
The damage from a tornado is generally more severe than that of a tropical storm or hurricane, but is limited to a much smaller area. Hurricanes and tropical storms can cause damage over enormous areas, so the total amount of damage done is greater.
