Why is a dry slot dry?
Normally ahead of a big storm system southerly winds drive a lot of moisture northward off of the Gulf of Mexico. We typically see a few lines of thunderstorms ahead of the storm and then we enter a lull. What is happening is on the backside of the storm system where northerly winds are mixing in a much drier air mass. Typically shower outputs around a well-developed storm form into a comma shape.
What storm might destroy houses on one side of a street but leave the houses on the other side untouched?
Tornados.
Why does a tornado lose power?
It is not fully understood how tornadoes dissipate. Most often, it is believed that cold or dry air enters the updraft of the tornado's parent storm, cutting off the supply of energy that powers both the storm and the tornado. Sometimes the storm loses energy as the heat of the day dissipates with the setting sun, or as the system supporting it retreats. The storm may also lose the rotation it needs to produce a tornado, such as by merging with a squall line.
What causes a tornado to lose its strength?
A tornado typically loses strength when cold or dry air undercuts the thunderstorm updraft that drives it. This cuts off the supply of air that power the storm and, in turn, the tornado.
