What else can I help you with?
Are tornadoes more frequent due to the effects of global warming?
No. The apparent increase in the number of tornadoes is entirely due to improvement in our ability to detect the weaker ones. The frequency of F3 and stronger tornadoes in the United States has actually decreased in the past few decades.
What percentage of tornadoes are F5 and F4?
A little more than 1% of tornadoes are rated F4 and F5 with F5 tornadoes being less than 0.1%
Which way do hurricanes and tornadoes rotate in the Northern Hemisphere?
In the Northern Hemisphere, hurricanes and tornadoes typically rotate counterclockwise. This is due to the Coriolis effect, which causes moving air to be deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere.
Why do hurricanes and tornadoes happen at the same time whenever?
They don't. While it is fairly common for a hurricane to produce tornadoes, most tornadoes are not associated with hurricanes. The thunderstorms that produce tornadoes may produce strong, even hurricane-force winds, but that does not make them hurricanes.
When tornadoes are formed cold dry air meets what kind of air?
In this oversimplified scenario, the cold dry air meets warm, moist air. However, this is not quite the case. The collision of these two air masses is not what directly causes tornadoes. Rather, this collison produces thunderstorms, which can in turn produce tornadoes. Such a collision is not always necessary for tornadoes to form either.
What are some of the causes and effects of tornadoes?
There are many harmful effects on tornadoes but a couple of examples are destruction of homes, land, and necessities that apply to people. The causes of these natural disasters are the high wind speeds and the location where it strikes.
How do tornadoes killed people?

Do planes make tornadoes?

What are 2 main causes of tornadoes?
Ultimately, the two primary causes of tornadoes are convective instability, which leads to thunderstorms, and wind shear, which gives those storms the rotation they need to produce tornadoes.
What are positive effects of tornadoes?
They pollinate the place they occur.
What are the effects on humans from tornadoes?
Tornadoes can damage or destroy people's property and can kill or injure the people themselves.
What season causes tornadoes?
Tornadoes come in all seasons but are most common in spring and summer.
What are the human causes of tornadoes?
