Generally speaking, they don't. Most tornadoes last less than 5 minutes. In simple terms, most tornadoes form as a result of complex interactions within a kind of thunderstorm called a supercell. According to Thomas P. Grazulis, a leading expert on tornadoes,here are multiple stages in the process that leads up to, produces, and dissipates tornadoes that often occur in a cyclic fashion. In the few tornadowa that are long-lived, the parent storm enters the tornado-producing stages as a "steady state" rather than as a simple part of a cycle, thus sustaining the tornado.
