  1. the ocean it develops over

    hurricanes over the atlantic

    cyclones over the inidan


  2. They are two different names for the same kind of storm -- a tropical cyclone, which is a low-pressure area in which the central core is warmer than the surrounding atmosphere. They’re called hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean and the Eastern Pacific Ocean, and typhoons in the Western Pacific. In addition, these storms are known as cyclones in the Indian Ocean and around the Coral Sea off northeastern Australia.

    The term "cyclone" refers to such storms' cyclonic nature, with counterclockwise rotation in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise rotation in the Southern Hemisphere.

  3. They are the EXACT thing. The only difference is where they form. They call them cyclones in the indian ocean and hurricanes in the atlantic and eastern pacific

  4. It depends in what part of the world you are.

    A cyclone is the equivelant of a tornado.

    A hurrican is the equivelant of a typhoon.
