Hurricanes develop from tropical disturbances over warm ocean water. Tornadoes develop from powerful, rotating thunderstorms.
No, warm water fuels a hurricane
Hurricane Tomas was in late 2010.
A hurricane will weaken if it moves over cold water.
No. A hurricane cannot form on the Great Lakes. Unlike tornadoes, which can occur almost anywhere, hurricane requires large amounts of warm water to form. In other words, they can only form over ocean water in or near the tropics. The Great Lakes are too cold and too small to support a hurricane.
It doesn't. A hurricane gains strength from warm ocean water. Warm water produces large amounts of water vapor, which is essentially the fuel of a hurricane. Cold water and land do not provide as much water vapor, so a hurricane will weaken if it encounters either of those.
wind and water
A sandstorm is usually in sandy area like deserts, while hurricane come near water like in Florida.
No. A hurricane on water is simply a hurricane. Tsunami is a large wave triggered by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake. A hurricane is a type of storm.

no
The energy that fuels a hurricane comes from latent heat stored in water vapor that evaporates from warm ocean water.

The Hurricane mainly stays on water.
The strongest winds of a hurricane are in the eye wall.
