How does tropical cyclone is different from monsoon
Answers
One way to think of the difference in terms of driving lol.
Consider a monsoon in terms of that miserable anticipated drive during rush hour! You pretty much know when to expect it to begin and more or less end.
Now, consider a hurricane as an auto-accident. An auto accident is a “specific” and often “violent" event. Accidents are obviously far more random but it's safe to assume that greater and lessor risk periods are fairly easy to predict (middle of the night vs. rush-hour, or quiet neighborhood street vs. busy intersections).
Essentially, the word monsoon actually refers to a particular season during the year. It is most commonly discussed by most as that area's particular “rainy season". A monsoon season does not necessarily suggest that dangerous or severe conditions will occur (but different regions on Earth might pose different or more common risk as a result of their particular monsoon seasons). On the other hand, unusually strong or severe rains and flooding could occur for several hours or days during any monsoon season and deep or fast moving water may potentially result in localized damage to structures and roads, large scale landslides, and result in injuries and fatalities.
A tropical storm or hurricane is a far more isolated severe weather event. It is less likely to have a large impact on a huge region perhaps many hundreds of mile across, but this singular large storm will very likely have very severe impact to those area's directly in it's path (and potentially 100-200 miles from it's center or “eye"). A hurricane is basically a large organized area of very low pressure typically accompanied by extremelt intense rain, extremely dangerous & high seas, wind driven storm surge flooding, and very strong sustained winds that could range from 74 mph to as high as over 200 mph in rare and extreme events. As a hurricane approaches, the weather begins to quickly deteriorate and worsen. The strongest winds are typically located near the center of the storm rapidly rotating around a small calm center called “the eye". The eye itself may range from just a few miles across up to 20 or more miles across. Inside the eye, conditions are actually calm and peaceful however many people have perished as a result of thinking the event was over, just to have the 2nd half of the hurricane quickly resume where some of the storms’ highest winds could suddenly and easily knock a person over or hit by dangerous flying debris .
All in all, hurricanes are large storms which form over the tropical and warm ocean waters. They too are typically more common during particular spring and summer seasons but do not typically impact most regions within the entire tropical ocean basin. They can be tracked and their impact typically forecast days in advance. The period of time that a hurricane may effect any particular area generally range from 12 hours to two days. However, the damage cause by stronger hurricanes can result in roof and structural damage, lost electricity, or flood conditions that can last for days, weeks, or months to recover from. Monsoons are generally the larger broad conditions for a much larger area, that commonly result in a more subtle increase in an overall rainy pattern. Monsoonal periods generally last weeks to several months long
