Yes. Some tornadoes, usually weak ones, have been known to be on the ground intermittently. Another phenomenon that sometimes gives the impression of skipping are multiple vortex tornadoes. These tornadoes contain smaller suction vortices with stronger winds inside the main circulation. Most large, destructive tornadoes cause their worst damage with these vortices. Since winds can vary significantly, it is not uncommon in such a tornado to find very severe damage next to minor or moderate damage.

How can a bullet ricochet off water?
The speed of the bullet at the time it leaves the chamber, is so high, that i can - when hitting water ( at the right angle ) skip.If you hit water at high speed, it will feel way harder than hitting it with low speed.For example, if you want to skip stones on water, you can't throw the stone slowly, you will have to give the stone some speed - or else it wont skip.

Why can AM broadcasts be heard for greater distances under certain conditions?
You can hear AM stations farther away more at night due to a condition known as SKIP, or Skywave Propagation. The propagation of AM radio waves changes drastically from daytime to nighttime. This change in AM radio propagation occurs at sunset due to radical shifts in the ionospheric layers, which persist throughout the night. During daytime hours when ionospheric reflection does not occur to any great degree, AM signals travel principally by conduction over the surface of the earth. A condition known as "groundwave" propagation. Useful daytime AM service is generally limited to a radius of no more than about 100 miles, even for the most powerful stations. However, during nighttime hours the AM signals can travel over hundreds of miles by reflection from the ionosphere, a phenomenon called "skywave" propagation. Basically the AM signal bounces off the ionosphere back to the earth rather than traveling in a direct line. This bounce allows the signal to be heard over vast distances. Amateur radio operators call this talking skip.
Can tornadoes skip or bounce from place to place?
Yes. In some cases a tornado will touch down and lift several times before dissipating. This is not to be confused with a tornado family, where a storm produces multiple tornadoes in succsession.

Do tornadoes really skip?
They usually don't exactly skip. There are several factors that may create the appearance of this. Tornadoes fluctuate in intensity. Some tornadoes have smaller, more intense vorticies in side the main circulation. These vorticies can produce very narrow swaths of more intense damage. Some tornadoes have very narrow damage paths. The quality of a building's construction can affect how much damage it takes.
