Why do tornadoes not form in antarcica?
Antarctica is too cold for tornadoes to form. Tornadoes need energy from warm air.
How is heat related to tornadoes?
Heat provides the energy required to form thunderstorms and thus tornadoes.
Are tornadoes a big example of wind energy?
Yes. The energy of a tornado takes the form of extremely fast wind. The strongest of tornadoes produce the fastest winds on earth.
Is thermal energy required to form tornadoes?
Yes. All storms on earth are driven by thermal energy.
Why do tornadoes form from clouds?
It is not so much the could themselves that form tornadoes but thunderstorms. Tornadoes typically form from a thunderstorm's rotating updraft called a mesocyclone. The energy that powers all thunderstorms comes from latent heat released as water vapor condenses to form clouds. Some of this energy may be passed on though wind currents to produce a tornado.
How is air movement important to tornadoes?
Tornadoes themselves are made of violently moving air and form from interactions of various moving parcels of air in and around a thunderstorm.
Do tornadoes form better in warm or cold areas?
Tornadoes form better in warm areas. The reason for this is warm air holds more energy to power storms than cold air does.
Can tornadoes form?
Yes, tornadoes can form. Hundreds, even thousands of tornadoes form every year.
Why do most tornadoes form in the afternoon and early evening?
That is the time of day when the air is usually warmest and has the most energy to fuel the severe storms that produce tornadoes.
Why are tornadoes uncommon in NY?
Tornadoes form from powerful thunderstorms that need a large amount of energy in the atmosphere. This energy is available when the air is very warm and moist. New York has a relatively cool climate and often does not have the energy necessary. Additionally, wind sheer (changes in wind speed and direction with height) over New York favors thunderstorms to form squall lines, while tornadoes form most easily in supercells.
Why do tornadoes form by clouds?
Because only the the energy involved in a thunderstorm or developing thunderstorm is enough to form something as strong as a tornado.
Do tornadoes form from thunderclouds?
Yes. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms.
