2. hurricane

An temporary alliance formed between the ocean and the sky with the goal of killing people. The ocean's ability to attack the land is limited, so it lends the sky some of its water and energy so it can assault people farther inland then it normally could.
Hurricanes are far more powerful then the storms the sky creates on its own. They are just another reason the ocean must be destroyed.

3. Tornado

Well, a REAL tornado is a funnel of air which decends from the clouds, (Most likely to be Cumonolibious) and reaches the ground, destroying anything in it's path. A tornado useally lasts for 15-20 minutes, with wind speeds up to 300mph! On the 3rd April an outstanding 24 tornadoes occured in Tornado Ally. (Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas) The tornado season starts from around April to August. Beware!

Eg: There was a tornado (Also known as a twister, cyclone or even mistakenly called a hurricane) in The Wizard of Oz, starring Judy Garland as Dorothy Gale. The film was made in 1939. There are several tornado films too such as, Atomic Twister, Tornado, Twister, Night of the Twisters and Tornadoes - we hardly Knew Ye. There was an episode about tornadoes in Eerie Indiana.

Japanese for big wave. Tsunamis can be generated by earthquakes, underwater landslides, and in rare cases, giant meteors striking the Earth's seas or oceans.

Tsunami: A cataclysm resulting from a destructive sea wave caused by an earthquake or volcanic eruption.

Answer 4

Ok i hope this helps.
Typhoon is when a tropical cyclone or hurricane of the western Pacific area and the China seas.
Hurricane is a violent, tropical, cyclonic storm of the western North Atlantic, having wind speeds of or in excess of 72 mph
Tornado is a localized, violently destructive windstorm occurring over land, esp. in the Middle West, and characterized by a long, funnel-shaped cloud extending toward the ground and made visible by condensation and debris.
And Tsunmai is an unusually large sea wave produced by a seaquake or undersea volcanic eruption.

Answer 5

A Typhoon occurs (over water) in the Pacific Ocean.

A Hurricane occurs (over water) in the Atlantic Ocean.

Note - A Typhoon and a Hurricane are exactly the same, except for WHERE they occur.

A Tornado occurs over land.

A Tsunami occurs under water.

Answer 6

tsunami is caused by earthquakes at the sea bed therefore cosin a huge or rogue wave which is deadly, a tornado is a swirling constant motion of wind of great speed making it dangerous as well, a hurricane is a random motion of fast moving wind accostmed by rain and really powerfull and typhoon i have no idea....
