What else can I help you with?
Which is more frequent in Kentucky thunderstorms or tornadoes?
Because a thunderstorm is necessary for a tornado to form, but only a minority of thunderstorms produce tornadoes storms are more common.
Can there be a tornado and hurricane at the same time and how?
Yes. It is actually fairly common for the thunderstorms in the outer bands of a hurricane to spawn tornadoes.
Does lightning strike in a tornado?
Yes, lightning can occur during a tornado. It is not caused by the tornado itself, but rather the severe thunderstorm that often accompanies tornadoes. Lightning is a common occurrence in thunderstorms due to the electrical charges interacting within the storm clouds.
Do thunderstorms create tornadoes?
Yes, thunderstorms are a common environment for tornado formation. Tornadoes can form when warm, moist air rises rapidly within a thunderstorm, creating a rotating updraft. If the conditions are right, this rotation can intensify and touch the ground as a tornado.
What percent of thunderstorms can produce a tornado?
About 1% of thunderstorms produce tornadoes.
What do Tornado and thunderstorms have in common?
They are all storms that can produce strong, potentially damaging winds, are accompanied by low pressure, and result from convection. Tornadoes are more an indirect result since they are a product of strong thunderstorms.
What has the potential of producing a tornado with little or no advanced tornado warning?
Severe thunderstorms have the potential of producing a tornado with little or no advanced tornado warning.
Has Virginia had a tornado?
Yes. If a place can get thunderstorms, it can get tornadoes/
What are THREE examples of weather?
thunderstorms,hurricanes,and a tornado
What 2 fronts can cause a tornado?
Tornadoes can be caused by either supercell thunderstorms or by the interaction of cold and warm fronts. Supercell thunderstorms are the most common cause of tornadoes, with their rotating updrafts creating the conditions necessary for tornado formation. When cold and warm fronts clash, the temperature difference and wind dynamics can create the instability needed for tornado development.
Are blizzards and thunderstorms also occured in the Tornado Alley?
Yes, blizzards and thunderstorms can also occur in Tornado Alley. Tornado Alley experiences a variety of severe weather, including blizzards during winter and thunderstorms during the warmer months. These different weather events can all contribute to the overall risk and intensity of severe weather in the region.
Why does it rain when there's a tornado?
Tornadoes are produced by very strong thunderstorms. Thunderstorms typically produce rain.
