Why are tropical cyclones more powerful as compared to temperature cyclones

Dear Student

Tropical cyclone is an intense circular storm that originates over warm tropical oceans and has low atmospheric pressure, high winds and heavy rains. It generates winds that exceed 119 km per hour. 

Temperate cyclones can maintain their strength and intensify over land. Tropical cyclones have much more intense rainfall that temperate cyclones as their source of energy is deep convection.
