Hurricane and Tornado are not alike because hurricane happens on water (sea) and tornado happens on land If a hurricane goes one land it weakens and dissipates

Tornadoes are rated on the Fujita scale based on damage with the ratings F0, F1, F2, F3 ,F4 ,and last but not least F5. Hurricane are rated by wind speed on the Saffir-Simpson scale from category 1 to Category 5.

Hurricanes are about 300 miles wide on average and last for days. Tornadoes average 50 yards wide, rarely over a miles, and never last more than a few hours. More often they last just a few minutes.

Hurricanes form in a low wind shear environment and are their own weather systems systems containing multiple convective cells.

Tornadoes from in a high wind shear environment from single convective cells (i.e. a thunderstorm).
