What is a multiple vortex volcano?
There is no such thing as a mutliple vortex volcano. However, there is such a thing as a mutliple vortex tornado. A tornado itself consists of a vortex. A mutliple vortex tornado contains smaller vortices, called subvortices within the main vortex. Subvortices in a tornado are usually continuously forming and dissipating. Based on historic reports, as many as eight may be present at a time, though there are usually no more than two or three. These vortices circle the center of the tornado, moving with the tornado's rotation. As a result, the rotational speed of the tornado is actually added to the rotational speed of the subvortex. This can result in wind speeds over 100 mph faster than in the rest of the tornado. Such a difference in wind speed can result in significant varation in the severity of damage. This is one reason a tornado can destroy one house while leaving one next to it with only minor to moderate damage.
