How do you get away from a tornado?

It is best to take shelter from a tornado than to try to outrun it. If you are in a vehicle with no access to shelter and the tornado is distant it is best to drive perpendicular to the tornado's path in order to get out of its way.


According to weather experts what should you do if a tornado comes and you are in a car?

If the tornado is in a distance, try to get out of the path by driving perpendicular or diagonal to its path. Do not attempt to outrun it. If the tornado is approaching and there is any doubt about your ability to get out of the way, get out of the gar and take cover in a ditch or depression.

Why is it hard for storm chasers to put equipment in a tornado's path?

The exact path a tornado will take is difficult to judge. It is easy to misjudge a tornado's direction if you're simply viewing it from the ground, especially when you have to deploy quickly. Additionally, it is very difficult if not impossible to predict if a tornado will turn before reaching a probe. Finally, compared with other weather phenomena tornadoes are small, making it easy for an intercept attempt to miss.


Was there an evacuation for the Waco tornado?

No. There wasn't even a warning. The tornado was detected, but due to communication problems the warning was never issued. Additionally, when a tornado is coming the advice is usually to take cover rather than evacuate, as there usually isn't enough time for an evacuation.


What can form with little or no warning a tornado or a hurricane?

Where did the longest tornado take place?

The longest-lasting and farthest traveling tornado was the Tri-State tornado of 1925. This tornado tore a 219-mile-long path of devastation from near Ellington, Missouri, across southern Illinois, to near Petersburg, Indiana. Numerous towns in between were hit. Several were completely destroyed.


What must you do if you spot a tornado in your path?

Assuming you are asking what to do if you are in a tornado's path: get inside a study house or building if possible and go to the basement or an interior room on the lowest floor. Stay away from windows. Trailers and vehicles should be abandoned for more suitable shelter. If on the road with no access to shelter drive perpendicular or diagonal to the path (depending on what the roads permit) to get out of the way. If the tornado is closing in abandon the vehicle and take cover in a ditch or depression. Do nottake shelter under a bridge.


What gets destroyed in a tornado?

It depends on how strong the tornado is. A weak tornado (EF0 or EF1) will generally only destroy small trees and weakly built structures such as sheds and fences. Stronger structures will only take minor to moderate damage. A strong tornado (EF2 or EF3) will destroy most trees, vehicles, and some buildings. A violent tornado (EF4 or EF5) will destroy just about everything in its path.
