We get cyclones and mostly tropical cyclones up north. Depending on where the information comes from as to what the exact difference is. Some say tropical cyclones are bigger and last longer but others suggest Tornadoes are bigger. However the main thing is they are both big fucking circular wind storms that are best avoided if possible. I believe it's a geographical thing. Cyclones here, Tornadoes in most if not all parts of the US, Typhoons in Asia etc.
And I was just riding you for the shit stir but didn't hang around for the response.
