When Cyclone Tracy hit Darwin on Christmas Day 1974, 255mm of rain was dumped on the city within a twelve hour period.
It varies. Technically a cyclone can be almost any large scale low pressure system with a closed circulation, and most such systems are not damaging. However, hurricanes and similar storms, which are a kind of cyclone, can cause far more damage and have much higher death tolls than tornadoes. Both the costliest and deadliest natural disasters in U.S. history were hurricanes (Hurricane Katrina and the 1900 Galveston hurricane respectively). It can be even more complicated however, as cyclones can cause tornadoes.
Oh, what a lovely question! Tornadoes and tropical cyclones are both powerful forces of nature, but they are different in size and characteristics. Tornadoes are usually smaller in size, with a narrow and intense rotating column of air, while tropical cyclones are much larger, spanning hundreds of miles with strong winds and heavy rain. Each one is unique and beautiful in its own way, just like every brushstroke on a canvas.

Too much of.
Too much of.
When Cyclone Tracy Hit Darwin, the city received 250mm within a 12 hour period.
It cost 800 Million Dollars to rebuild Darwin
Cyclone Tracy, in 1974, did not destroy any crops. When the cyclone made landfall, the eye of the cyclone centred over Darwin, so the worst damage was the devastation of houses and other buildings. The area around Darwin was affected to a much more limited sense, and Tracy did not bring heavy rains often associated with cyclones.
Over 800 Million Dollars and 837 Million in damages =)
Cyclone Tracy primarily affected the city of Darwin in the Northern Territory of Australia when it struck on Christmas Eve in 1974. The cyclone caused widespread destruction across much of Darwin, with around 70% of the buildings damaged or destroyed. While Darwin was the most severely impacted area, surrounding regions also experienced significant effects from the storm.
because cyclone Tracy is so powerful it's like category 5
Much of the city had to be rebuilt. A large amount of the population left and have never returned. Others stayed to rebuild their city and their lives.

i dont know u tell me?
The damage bill following Cyclone Tracy was $800 million (Australian dollars). That was in 1974 figures, so would translate to much higher figures now.
