Now, I knwo that tornadoes and hurricanes are diff. so we'll deal w/ them separately. First of all, differences; I heard that the most intense area for hurricane is the eye of it which is in the middles whereas, for tornado, that's completely opposite. For similarity, we know they both spin. Now let's move on.

I know that tornadoes are caused when cold air is trapped by warm air but how does that results in spin?

What causes a hurricane?

Please be really descriptive about both of these coz I have read about both of them in books and I am still not totally clear about it.
