a tornado warning is something that tells u a tornado has been spotted in your area or is strongly indicated by radar. so tornado warning means tornado near you. you should take cover when this is issued.

What does a tornado do to contribute to global warming?
Nothing. It would be part of the natural cooling of the planet.
Are tornadoes decreasing due to global warming?
Currently scientists are uncertain as to how global warming would affect tornadoes. This is further complicated by a lack of complete, long-term tornado records. So far no substantial link has been discovered.
When is a tornado considered a tornado?
A tornado is considered a tornado when it reaches the ground
How does global warming affect tornadoes?
It is still uncertain as to how global warming would affect tornadoes. There is no real evidence of an increase in overall tornado activity. One possible consequence would be the shifting of tornado season earlier in the year, possibly peaking in March or April rather than in May as it usually does. Storm chasers have also noted that activity seems to be shifting northwards. They are chasing less often in Texas and more often in Kansas and Nebraska.
What is a tornado watch and a tornado warning?
A tornado watch is a watch that is watching out for tornadoes. A tornado warning is a warning That lets you know that a tornado is spotted.
Are tornadoes linked to global warming?
Tornadoes will always occur, with or without global warming. So far the only known trend in tornado activity that may be linked to global warming is a northward shift of the areas of highest tornado activity in Tornado Alley.
What does a tornado do to contribute to global warming?
Nothing. It would be part of the natural cooling of the planet.
Could tornadoes cause global warming?
No. While global warming might affect tornado activity, tornadoes themselves are an end product of weather and climatic activity, not a cause.
How is Hurricane Katrina related to global warming?
No single weather event can be attributed with certainty to global warming. All climate scientists can say is that the icreased intensity of hurricanes and tornado events is consistent with predictions about global warming. Scientists simply do not know whether global warming influenced the intensity or duration of Hurricane Katrina.
Was the Joplin tornado part of global warming?
A single event cannot be attributed to global warming, only overall trends can. Violent tornadoes will occur and devastate communities with or without climate change and Missouri is no stranger to such storms. Tornadoes have occurred that were probably stronger than the Joplin tornado but just did not strike major population centers and so passed without as much notice. An event like the Joplin tornado was ultimately inevitable simply by matters of chance.
Does global warming affect how violent a tornado is?
No. While global warming may affect where and when tornadoes are most likely to occur, the tornadoes themselves will probably stay the same strength.That said, tornadoes may become more destructive, as a rise in temperature could shift Tornado Alley eastward into more densely populated regions.A:Yes. One of the predicted effects of global warming is that "weather events" like tornadoes will become "more frequent and more severe".
Are tornadoes decreasing due to global warming?
Currently scientists are uncertain as to how global warming would affect tornadoes. This is further complicated by a lack of complete, long-term tornado records. So far no substantial link has been discovered.
Does greenhouse and global warming have anything to do with hurricanes and typhoons?
Hurricanes and typhoons are weather. Climate is a longer term look at how weather averages out over the years. So one severe tornado is not evidence of climate change and global warming. But if the numbers and the severity of weather events change over time, then that may be a part of climate change caused by global warming.
How is global warming linked to tornadoes?
Some have proposed that higher temperatures would mean more energy to power the thunderstorms that produce tornadoes. Others have noted that global warming would alter the distribution of such tornadoes. So far no real increase in tornado activity has been noted (the apparent increase is due to out increased ability to detect tornadoes), though some meteorologists have noted that tornado activity in the U.S. seems to be shifting northward.
How does global warming cause tornadoes?
Global warming does not cause tornadoes. Tornadoes will happen with or without it. The argument that some use is that a warmer climate means that more energy is available for storms and thus more tornadoes. This is grossly oversimplified. A complex set of conditions are needed for tornado activity, especially significant activity. There are many variables. Raising average global temperatures will affect all of these variable in some way or another and will affect them differently in different regions in ways that are hard to predict. In all likelihood, global warming would result in an increase in tornado activity in some regions and a decrease in others.
When is a tornado considered a tornado?
A tornado is considered a tornado when it reaches the ground
Is the haboob tornado a tornado?
No, a haboob is not a tornado.
