Why do tornadoes appear black?
Tornadoes do not always appear black. The apparent color depends on lighting conditions and how much and what color of soil is being lifted. Many tornadoes appear dark because of perspective: the are lit from behind and are essentially silhouetted against the light source. The same tornado may appear lighter if viewed from a different angle. The storms that spawn tornadoes have very thick clouds that often making conditions appear very dark. The clouds themselves may be black. Some tornadoes may be black as they lift large amounts of black soil into the air.

The phases of the moon have no effect at all on the calendar currently, in the sense that the phases bring about some kind of change in the calendar.
