<human>:  What is the difference between a hurricane, tornado, and typhoon?
<bot>: A hurricane is a type of tropical cyclone that forms in the Atlantic Ocean and the Northeast Pacific Ocean, usually in the form of large thunderstorms. Tornadoes are violent rotating columns of air that form in the lower atmosphere and extend from the base of a thunderstorm or other clouds. Typhoons are a type of tropical cyclone, similar to a hurricane but they form in the Northwest Pacific Ocean. Hurricanes are usually accompanied by high winds, heavy rains, and storm surges, while tornadoes usually bring with them destructive winds and tornadic activity. Typhoons can bring powerful winds, heavy rains, and large storm surges.
