Tornado From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Tornado A tornado is a violent windstorm characterized by a twisting, funnel-shaped cloud. The word "tornado" comes from the Spanish or Portuguese verb tornar , meaning "to turn." The phenomena appears in storms all around the world, though they most commonly occur in a broad area of the American Midwest and South known as Tornado Alley , but some other countries see the storms occur in even higher densitites. Table of contents 1 Tornado formation 2 Tornado characteristics 3 Tornado awareness and safety 4 See also ... edit Tornado formation Tornadoes develop from severe thunderstorms, usually spawned from squall lines and supercell thunderstorms , though they sometimes happen as a result of a hurricane . They are believed to be produced when cool air overrides a layer of warm air, forcing the warm air to rise rapidly, though tornadoes over water (waterspouts) frequently are observed forming in the absence of convection or apparent strong surface temperature differences. Tornadoes are inextricably associated with lightning , and tornadoes (as well as dust devils ) exhibit enormous electromagnetic fields that are inexplicable by convection models. Many tornadoes appear at the tail end of

Science@NASA Home Spotting Tornadoes from Space One year ago this week killer tornadoes raged across Oklahoma. Now, NASA scientists are figuring out how to predict such storms using lightning data from Earth-orbit. May 1, 2000: April showers and May flowers indicate the arrival of spring, and with the season comes severe weather. Each spring we witness dramatic increases in the frequency and strength of storm systems, as evidenced by last year's tornado outbreak in Oklahoma. Scientists at NASA are developing instruments to understand and predict these intense storms with greater speed and precision. During the afternoon and evening of May 3, 1999, a series of "supercell" thunderstorms produced large, destructive tornadoes concentrated in central Oklahoma. There were more than 70 tornadoes in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas with hail as large as 4.5 inches in diameter. The tornadoes killed more than 40 people and caused more than $1 billion in damage. Above: A tornado strikes Union City, Oklahoma on May 24, 1973.

BLUE ASH, Ohio (CNN) Powerful storms and tornadoes carved a path of destruction across the Midwest and Plains late Thursday and early Friday, destroying homes and other buildings and killing at least two people. The death toll could rise, however, as rescue workers assess the damage. "We're still trying to get people out from under buildings," said Richard Young of the Hamilton County Sheriff's Department in Ohio. Young said he was aware of reports of three fatalities but could not confirm them. "Things are just such a mess right now that I don't know," he said.

86. 7(t) Thunderstorms And Tornadoes (t). Thunderstorms and tornadoes. Severe weather associated with some these clouds includes hail, strong winds, thunder, lightning, intense rain, and tornadoes. http://www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/7t.html

FUNDAMENTALS OF PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY HOME FUNDAMENTALS ONLINE TEXTBOOK GLOSSARY ... ABOUT CHAPTER 7: Introduction to the Atmosphere (t). Thunderstorms and Tornadoes Thunderstorms Thunderstorms form when moist, unstable air is lifted vertically into the atmosphere. Lifting of this air results in condensation and the release of latent heat . The process to initiate vertical lifting can be caused by: (1). Unequal warming of the surface of the Earth. Orographic lifting due to topographic obstruction of air flow. (3). Dynamic lifting because of the presence of a frontal zone Immediately after lifting begins, the rising parcel of warm moist air begins to cool because of adiabatic expansion. At a certain elevation the dew point is reached resulting in condensation and the formation of a cumulus cloud. For the cumulus cloud to form into a thunderstorm, continued uplift must occur in an unstable atmosphere. With the vertical extension of the air parcel, the cumulus cloud grows into a cumulonimbus cloud.

89. Gorgons, Tornadoes, And Plasmoid Phenomena - Paper By Edward Lewis Return to the INE Main Page. Gorgons, tornadoes, and Plasmoid Phenomena. Revised Oct. 1996. Reposted Nov. 15, 1996.. Gorgons, tornadoes, and Plasmoid Phenomena. http://www.padrak.com/ine/ELEWIS4.html

Return to the INE Main Page Gorgons, Tornadoes, and Plasmoid Phenomena Edward Lewis P. O. Box 13050 Chicago, Illinois 60613 April 28, 1996 revised May 24, 1996 [Received via email to INE, June 1996. Revised Oct. 1996.] [Reposted Nov. 15, 1996.] Gorgons, Tornadoes, and Plasmoid Phenomena A few years ago, I found a wonderful book(1) that was written by Egon Bach about phenomena from volcanoes, vents, and even just the plain flat earth surface that he calls gorgons, after the ancient Greek name for god-monsters from volcanoes. He seems to have worked for many years to collect evidence and formulate his ideas. My plasmoid ideas are not much like his ideas though. Gorgons are a type of plasmoid. By learning about these plasmoids, one can learn about other types such as those produced in apparatus. I want to introduce this book and explain how these phenomena are identical to plasmoids and tornadoes since they behave like other plasmoids and even interconvert to them, and show application to understanding the "cold fusion" phenomena. Like tornadoes(7), some gorgons have been seen to be cylinders composed of disks stacked upon each other, and people have seen such sheer apart into many flying disks (p. 166). Recently, a video of a "white cylinder" that was a half mile long traveling very fast about 75000 feet over Colorado and that was apparently also photographed in another state a little later was featured on Paranormal Borderlines(8). It was luminous and rapidly exhibited a variety of changing colors and seems to have been layered or somewhat segmented. The object was videotaped very recently, perhaps a month ago. E. Bach reports information about other pictures or studies of similar objects. There actually are many reports of gorgons spouting out tornado-like funnels or funnels joining together with a gorgon. Large gorgons may convert to tornadoes (p. 71).

Instructional Objective: The student will demonstrate understanding of the formation and destruction of a tornado and related safety precautions by completing a questionnaire and quiz with 80% accuracy. National Science Education Standards Content Standard D: As a result of their activities in grades K-4, all students should develop an understanding of changes in earth and sky. Changes In Earth and Sky Weather changes from day to day and over the seasons. Weather can be described by measurable quantities, such as temperature, wind direction and speed, and precipitation. Instructional Considerations: This is a 4th grade class of 10 girls and 10 boys, all of average intelligence. Children will be working in pairs in the computer lab. Children will be assessed through supervised and independent practice. Set: "Last class, we began a unit on Severe Weather and discussed tornadoes specifically. Today we are going to use our computers to research tornadoes to find out why they are considered severe weather and how we should respond to them. Encarta 97 Encyclopedia and the Internet will help us find the information we need."

They have a very high energy density which means that they affect a small area but are very destructive to that area. They also don't last very long which makes it hard to learn about them. Since they're hard to study, they're also hard to forecast . People know even less about tornadoes, which is why there are a lot of different myths that aren't true. Tornadoes can occur anywhere in the world. About 75% of them happen in the United States, most in an area know as Tornado Alley . There are also some other interesting facts about tornadoes.

(CNN) In a blizzard, two feet of snow won't fall at your house while your neighbor gets a dusting. Hurricanes rarely pummel one part of town and totally skirt another, nor does an earthquake rattle one building and leave one next-door unshaken. But equality often flies out the window with tornadoes. Randomness is a key feature of twisters, in which 300 mph-plus winds might devastate one community but spare another nearby. Yet weather experts have become increasingly adept at understanding tornadoes, especially in the twister-prone swath of the Midwest known as Tornado Alley. Twenty years ago, warnings would only be issued if a "spotter" reported a twister touching down. But thanks to technology like Doppler radar, satellites, weather balloons, computer modeling and climatic and historical studies, authorities now can send out a cascading set of watches and warnings indicating when, where and how strong a tornado will strike.
