What is the difference between nor Easter in a hurricane?

Answer 1

The Nor'Easter and the Hurricane both form around a low pressure core. The difference is a hurricane forms in the tropics and has no fronts contained within. A Nor'Easter forms north of the tropics and has two fronts, one cold front following a warm front. Both storms are capable of high winds and heavy precipitation. However the Hurricane generally has more energy due to a higher and warmer water vapor content than the typical Nor'Easter. Both storms have a wind system which spins counter clockwise. (Yes that is only for Northern Hemisphere but technically both classified phenomenon only happen in the No

rthern Hemisphere.) Hurricanes are storms which happen in the Atlantic. The same type of storm in the Pacific is called a typhoon.

Answer 2

A nor'easter is a type of storm that brings strong winds and heavy precipitation to the East Coast of the United States, typically during the winter. On the other hand, a hurricane is a tropical cyclone with high winds and heavy rain that forms in warm ocean waters. While both can cause significant damage, hurricanes are typically more intense and can spawn tornadoes, whereas nor'easters are generally more common and affect a wider area.
