A tornado is a violently rotating column of air extending from the base of thunderstorm to the ground. Tornadoes are a very different phenomenon from tropical storms. First and foremost is that a tropical storm is its own storm system while a tornado is a relatively small vortex dependent on a parent thunderstorm. Additionally tornadoes usually form on land and are more common in temperate latitudes than tropical.
