Dangerous storms

The table demonstrates some details about two powerful storms, hurricanes and tornadoes. Bothe is unsafe and destructive and there are many remarkable differences between them.

First all, the maximum speed of tornadoes is 250-300 mph, whereas the maximum speed of hurricanes is around 155-200 mph. On the other hand the minimum speed of hurricanes about 74 mph, is higher than that of a tornado 40 mph. The tornadoes are classified on the Fujita FO F5 scale, while the hurricanes are recorded on the Seffir Simpson C1 scale. Hurricanes last for a few minutes until few hours. A tornado can be predicated around 20 minutes or less in advance, but hurricanes can be predicted 2 or 3 days in advance in an open area and 6-10 hours in a close area. A hurricane affects a larger area than a tornado.

Overall, tornadoes are more dangerous than hurricanes because we cannot predict them easily.
