Extremely late, but...

Quote from: ThatHiddenCharacter on May 15, 2017, 03:01:24 PMFor example, I don't think Waluigi would care if I said hurricane instead of cyclone.
Not because of the use of cultural terminology. I'm instead triggered by the lack of distinguishing between the two. They are similar, but one is found in the Northern Hemisphere (hurricane) and one is found in the Southern Hemisphere (cyclone), and they both spin in opposite directions as a result of the Coriolis Effect. Hurricanes are also called typhoons in Asian countries.

Quote from: LeviR.star on May 15, 2017, 03:17:43 PMWait, I thought cyclone was another term for tornado.
Technically yes, but when referring to all of these winds you should not refer to tornadoes as cyclones. Tornadoes are actually different things from hurricanes too, as they are caused by some slightly differing geographical processes, but I feel like you already knew that.

Dude

Way to know your weather terminology, scrubs

But the REAL question is:

Are tornadoes and earthquakes the same thing?

First of all, I already knew the opposite direction and typhoon things. Second of all, spinning in the opposite direction doesn't change what type of storm it is.

Quote from: Windows to the UniverseA hurricane is a cyclone.

Anticyclones are more to do with whether or not the air pressure is suitable for a cyclone or hurricane to occur.

Quote from: E. Gadd Industries on May 16, 2017, 04:19:16 AMActually, spin direction has a lot more to do with it than you might think.
Yes, but according to that, the spin direction matters when it's going in the opposite direction of what it should go in its hemisphere. Therefore, direction doesn't matter, as long as it's going in the correct direction for its hemisphere.

The strict directional pattern of the Coriolis Effect mean that the hemisphere is the cause for the difference between a hurricane and a cyclone. They are two slightly different things. If you want to point out that they are functionally the same thing, you're technically right, but we're strictly talking about terminology, and thus you should be using the correct terminology, by not calling hurricanes "cyclones".

But I don't call hurricanes, cyclones. I was using it as an example for something. I call hurricanes, hurricanes.
