What kind of air pressure is related to storms such as tornadoes and hurricanes?
Stormy weather is associated with low pressure.
Do tornadoes and hurricanes need low air pressure?
Yes. Tornadoes and hurricanes are both areas of low pressure.
Why do hurricanes and tornadoes need a mixture of cool and warm air?
Hurricanes don't. They form within a region of warm air that has relatively little temperature variation. Tornadoes, on the other hand, are commonly found ahead of a cold front. A cold front occur when a mass of cool air plows into a mass of warm air. The warmer air, which is less dense, is forced upward and cools as it rises. Moisture in the warm air mass condense to form rain shows and, if there is enough moisture, thunderstorms. If the storms are strong enough and conditions are right these storms may produce tornadoes.
Are maritime air masses hurricanes?
No. A maritime air mass is any air mass that originates over the ocean. A hurricanes is an intense tropical storm.
In which tour of air mass do hurricanes form?
Maritime Tropical
What kind of air pressure is related to storms such as tornadoes and hurricanes?
Stormy weather is associated with low pressure.
Do tornadoes and hurricanes need low air pressure?
Yes. Tornadoes and hurricanes are both areas of low pressure.
What is the source of energy for tornadoes and hurricanes?
Ultimately, the source of energy for both tornadoes and hurricanes is warm, moist air.

What is the characteristics between of thunderstorms tornadoes hurricanes?
Thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hurricanes are all types of storm generally driven by warm moist air. Tornadoes, hurricanes, and some thunderstorms rotate and produce damaging winds. Tornadoes themselves are the product of rotating thunderstorms. Both hurricanes and thunderstorms can produce heavy rain.
Are maritime air masses hurricanes?
No. A maritime air mass is any air mass that originates over the ocean. A hurricanes is an intense tropical storm.
In which tour of air mass do hurricanes form?
Maritime Tropical
What is the name of a storm in which rapidly spinning air becomes dangerous?
tornadoes or hurricanes
What happens to warm air as it takes over a cold air mass?
The warm air and cold air will end up combining and forming bad weather such as rain, tornadoes or other natural disaster's such as hurricanes or thunder storms.
What three air masses cause tornadoes?
Tornadoes often form when a cool air mass and a dry air mass collide with a warm, moist air mass. This collision produces strong thunderstorms. Under the right conditions these thunderstorms can produce tornadoes.
Do hurricanes and tornadoes both spin around a center of low air pressure?
Yes.
Which air Mass is responsible for hurricanes?
maritime tropical
