What goes up, must come down. The tornado simply carries stuff downwind and deposits them.

Air does go up in a tornado and it is cooler than surrounding air due to decompression. However, it is generally fed by warm air. If too much cold air gets into the circulation, the tornado will dissipate.

A tornado develops when the rotating updraft of a thunderstorm becomes focused on a smaller area. The updraft of the tornado draws air upwards, creating a center of low pressure.

What do you call a tornado that hits snow?

It is still just a tornado. However, it would be quite unusual to have an actual tornado go through an area where there is snow on the ground, as such conditions would generally be be too cold for tornado formation. Sometimes, though, you can get small whirlwinds that usually result from wind interacting with trees, buildings, and terrain. These are not tornadoes, but harmless eddies. If they lift snow into the air they are somtimes called snow devils.


What happened during tornado to affect human lives?

There are a lot of things that affect human lives when a tornado hits. For one thing it can kill people. If a meteorologist doesn't catch the warnings in time to give out a tornado warning then things can end very badly, but they usually do. A tornado can also destroy homes, barns, plant life, crops, telephone poles, and pretty much anything that gets in its way. For example if a home gets struck by a tornado and they have a storm shelter and go underground then the family is safe. Except when the storm is over almost everything they own can be distroyed. Depends on how bad the tornado is.

Where does the tornado go after it destroys everything?

Technically, a tornado does not "destroy everything". In fact, it's path is completely unpredictable and random.A tornado doesn't "go" anywhere after it "destroys everything" because it isn't really intended to destroy things. A tornado could appear in a place where there is very little nature and very barren.The tornado will simply "fade away" or stop, and will just "go away". When, exactly is unknown, since tornadoes have a wide range of times in which they will last.


Why Does a tornado happen when air masses interact?

The tornado is not a direct result of the interacting air masses. When a warm and cold air mass collide the warm air, being less dense, is forced upward. If the warm air mass is unstable enough, this upward forcing triggers the formation of thunderstorms. If other conditions are right, these storms may go on to produce tornadoes.
