"Hurricanes", do not travel that far north, and keep their strength, however, the remnants of a hurricane, can travel all the way into Canada and farther north. As a storm system runs into drier and cooler air, the Tropical winds of the Hurricane are eliminated. Let's say a Hurricane makes Landfall in Mississippi as a Category 3. As the hurricane makes its way inland, the wind speed gradually decreases. How ever far north "damaging hurricane winds" occur does vary depending on the size and strength of the hurricane. As it travels north-east ward, and it most always does, due to the West to East flow across the United States, the winds weaken considerably, usually around 30-35 mph, but the moisture is still tropical. As we saw with Ike in Michigan. A cold front from the northwest, acted as a blocking wall, funneling all that moisture northeastward, plus the regular moisture the cold front contained.
Yes. Michigan has about 15 tornadoes each year on average. Three of these tornadoes have been rated F5, including the Flint, Michigan tornado of 1953 which was one of the deadliest in U.S. history.
There is no official tornado season, however activity is generally highest in the months of May through July, peaking in June. As climates shift over time from decade to decade, so does the tornado season.
well only 18 hit well only when in flint we had that bad storm and flint had the tornado and im just very scared of them did it answer your question
Yes. There have been three F5 tornadoes in Michigan: the Cass City tornado of 1905, the Flint tornado of 1953 (one of the deadliest in U.S. history) and the Grand Rapids tornado of 1956.
not as much as in oklahom obviously but Michigan definitely has enough severe weather (including tornadoes) to keep things interesting.
Yes. Michigan gets tornadoes every year. The worst tornado in Michigan history was an F5 that devastated portions of Flint and Beecher on June 8, 1953, killing 116 people.
No, Michigan is not usually affected by hurricanes as they come up from the Atlantic Ocean and Michigan is too far north and west.
Water sprouts are tornados on water and tornados are on land. Water sprouts are less violent than tornados because theres not alot to destroy on the water!!!
Indiana is connected to Michigan southwest of Michigan.
tornado formation is not based on temperature, but upon storm structure. you cannot use temperature to determine tornados
A tornado can do all sorts of damage...from just shattering the widows and ripping off the roof to completely distroying and area.And it also depends on how many tornados there are!!
When you have a hot front and a cold front that come together, it creates a tornado. its just like when you have small ''tornados'' of leaves. That is caused by two wind currents coming at each other.
the tornados "telstar"
No tornadoes have hit Wichita so far in 2015.
Believe it or not, the U.S.A. has had the most tornados.
seven
According to the NCDC: The state with the highest average number of tornados per year is Texas. However, the state with the highest number of tornados per square mile is Florida. Admittedly, most tornados that hit Florida tend to be puny in comparison to those that hit the midwest.
Yes. Tornadoes hit Texas more than any other state.
The film takes place in Oklahoma.
There were 105 tornadoes that hit Iowa in 2008.
Iowa averages 35 tornadoes every year.
volcanoes are mountains that errupt. how the heck can it hit a living thing. I think you're thinking of tornados
USA has had the most tornados
Pensacola Tornados ended in 1995.
