A "dirt devil" more properly called a dust devil is a vortex that forms at ground level as a result of the sun heating the ground. These whirlwinds may look somewhat like tornadoes, but they are not. Unlike tornadoes, which require thunderstorms to form, dust devils almost always form in sunny weather. They are also weaker than tornadoes, with the very strongest dust devils barely producing winds equivalent to an EF0 tornado.
