A hurricane is a "named storm". If you do not have a named storm exclusion then your wind coverage will cover hurricane damage.
Twister= spinning wind. Hurricane= lots of rain and unorganized wind.
The difference is in wind speed. A category 2 hurricane has sustained winds in the range of 96-110 mph. A category 4 hurricane has winds in the range of 130-156 mph.
By measuring the sustained wind speed. If the wind speed of a tropical cyclone is anywhere in the range of 39 to 73 mph then it is a tropical storm. If the wind speed is 74 mph or greater then it is a hurricane.
A tropical storm and a hurricane are distinguished by absolute barametric pressure at the eye and the eye wall wind speed. A tropical storm is a weak form of a hurricane.
It is Florida law requires property insurance policies to include coverage for damage caused by the wind during a storm that the National Hurricane Center declares to be a hurricane.
Hurricane ratings are bases on maximum sustained wind speed. A category 1 hurricane has sustained winds of 74-95 mph. A category 5 hurricane has winds over 156 mph.
Rain, a difference in air pressures and temperatures...
Wind strength
the difference is nothing they are no difference
There really is no difference.
There is little to no wind in the eye of a hurricane because all of the wind is circling around the eye of the hurricane. If there was wind in the middle of a hurricane, then it wouldn't really be a hurricane. It would just be a bunch of wind in one spot.
The size of a hurricane is how big it is, usually measured by the size of the area that has gale for winds or stronger winds, called the gale diameter. The strength of a hurricane is independent of size and is usually measured in terms of maximum sustained wind speed.
