What is a main difference between hurricanes and tornadoes? Tornadoes form only over warm water, and hurricanes form only over cold water. Tornadoes happen during the winter, and hurricanes happen during the summer. Tornadoes can form over land, but hurricanes only form over the ocean. Hurricanes rotate counterclockwise, and tornadoes rotate clockwise.

A tornado is a fast rotation of wind that travels across land for a short time, ripping apart anything in it's path. A hurricane is a terrible, huge storm that can cause severe damage with high winds and heavy rainfall.
