Neither would notice the other.

Hypothetically, it will either snuff out the hurricane, or the hurricane will suck the ocean into space. ;-)

It's possible. This earthquake won't generate one.

I’d venture a guess that the hydrodynamic forces of a tsunami *might* attenuate some of the waves due to the hurricane.

(However, if you’re on the coastline when they both hit, you’re REALLY screwed...)
