Hurricanes produce very heavy rain, enough to pose a very serious flooding risk. The rain is shredded into smaller droplest by the powerful winds and appear to move in an almost horizontal direction.

Heavy rain, often accompanied by hail, generally prececes a tornado, but often stops before the tornado hits. The tornado itself is often in a rain-free portion of a thunderstorm. However, some tornadoes are rain-wrapped. The rain can range anywhere from a drizzel to a torrential downpour that blocks the tornado from view.

There is no conflict between a hurricane and a tornado. In fact, hurricanes often produce tornadoes.

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.
