The center of a tornado is an area of intense low pressure.


What is the pressure of a tornado?

No one really know pressure can vary for the type or category of a tornado.


What type of system causes a tornado?

Tornadoes are produced by thunderstorms, which are generally associated with low pressure systems.


What type of air pressure do tornadoes have?

Tornadoes have low air pressure at their center, known as the "eye" of the tornado. This sudden drop in air pressure can contribute to the destructive forces of a tornado by causing buildings to implode and trees to snap.


How air pressure change by the type of tornado?

If by type you mean Fujita (F) scale rating, then generally the stronger the tornado the lower the pressure.


What type of pressure system is a tornado?

A tornado produces low pressure, but it is not a pressure system in and of itself.


What are the wind and pressure characteristics of a tornado?

The pressure inside a tornado is low compared to its surroundings, though exactly how low pressure can get in a tornado is unknown as few measurements have been taken, but it is generally accepted that the lower the pressure in a tornado, the stronger it is. Wind in a tornado moves in a circular fashion very rapidly, so the tornado is actually a type of powerful vortex. On rare occasions these winds can exceed 200 or even 300 mph (320 or 480 km/h). In addition winds in a tornado move upward very quickly at speeds similar to those of the rotation. Air near the tornado spirals inward


What type of thunderstorms is a tornado associated with?

Tornadoes are usually associated with especially powerful thunderstorms called supercells.


What type of air pressure is associated with a hurricane?

A hurricane is associated with low air pressure.


Does thunderstorm have low pressure center?

No, thunderstorms do not have a low pressure center. Thunderstorms are a type of weather system associated with intense convective activity, but they typically do not have the organized circulation patterns seen in low pressure centers like those found in tropical cyclones or mid-latitude cyclones.


What type of weather are cyclones associated with?

Cyclones and decreasing air pressure are associated with wind, clouds, and precipitation.


Type of weather is associated with high pressure areas?

warm weather
