Hurricanes and Typhoons are the same thing, but in different places. On the
coast of Florida it is called hurricane. In the Philipines, it is called
typhoon. Hurricanes occur in the Atlantic and typhoons, in the Pacific.
Basically, hurricanes and typhoons form over water and are huge, while
tornados form over land and are much smaller in size. A tornado is a violent
windstorm characterised by a twisting, funnel-shaped cloud。 |
