What causes tornadoes to dissipate is not fully understood, but it is believed that cold thunderstorm outflow undercuts the parent circulation (mesocyclone) that drives the tornado, cutting of the warm air that drives the thunderstorm, causing it to weaken to the point that it can no longer sustain a tornado.

What is a mini tornado?
The term "mini tornado" does not have an exact definition. It has been applied to a number of different phenomena. Some people have called small whirlwinds such as dust devils mini tornadoes. Such whirlwinds are not actual tornadoes but may superficially resemble them. News outlets in Australia and Europe may sometimes refer to the tornadoes they get as "mini tornadoes," even in instances of large, significant tornadoes. They equivocate like this because they are reluctant to admit that tornadoes occur in those areas. People may occasionally call small, weak tornadoes mini tornadoes.
