A tornado can have stronger winds than a hurricane.

The very strongest tornadoes have winds just over 300mph while a the very strongest of hurricanes have winds of about 190 mph or sometimes more

However, tornadoes and hurricanes that strong are very rare.

Which one of these are the most powerful a plague or volcano or hurricane or earthquake or tornado or sandstorm?

In terms of power, volcanoes are typically the most powerful on this list, as they have the ability to cause widespread destruction over large areas. Hurricanes and earthquakes are also considered very powerful natural disasters, capable of causing immense damage and loss of life. Tornadoes, sandstorms, and plagues can also be deadly, but their reach and impact are generally more localized compared to the others.


Is a Katrina hurricane worst than a flood and a tornado and an earthquake and a snow storm?

There is no such things as "a Katrina hurricane." Hurricane Katrina was a particular hurricane that hit the Gulf Coast in 2005. Hurricane Katrina was worse than any tornado on record and deadlier and more destructive than any recorded snowstorm. Katrina was worse than most earthquakes, but not all. Hurricane Katrina killed about 1,800 people. Some earthquakes have had death tolls in the hundreds of thousands.


Which is more destructive the winds of a hurricane or a tornado?

Generally tornado winds are more destructive that hurricane winds. Hurricane winds, however, cause damage over a much larger area than a tornado, so the overall amount of damage may be greater. The worst damage in a hurricane is usually the result of flooding.


Is a tornado or a hurricane more severe over a wide area?

A hurricane affects a much wider area while a tornado can cause more severe damage in a small area.


Is there a neverending tornado on Jupiter?

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

Who would win in a fight a tornado or a hurricane?

There is no conflict between a hurricane and a tornado. In fact, hurricanes often produce tornadoes. However, if you were to somehow pitch the force of a hurricane against the force of a tornado, the hurricane would "win" without being significantly affected. Although a tornado can have faster winds than a hurricane, hurricanes are much larger and have several orders of magnitude more energy than a tornado.

What is several hundred miles in diameter a tornado or a hurricane?

A hurricane. A tornado is usually no more than a quarter of a mile wide.


Would a tornado do more damage than a hurricane?

No. A hurricane will produce more damage overall because it affects a larger area, though on a localized scale the damage from a tornado is often more severe.
