What type of wind moves us air masses?

Global winds, like the trade winds and westerlies, are responsible for moving air masses around the Earth. These winds are driven by the rotation of the Earth and differences in temperature and pressure.


What kind of storm has the most powerful winds on Earth?

A tornado.


Which condition is most likely to lead to high winds?

High winds are most likely to occur with the presence of low pressure systems, such as a strong gradient in pressure between two areas. This causes air to move quickly from high pressure to low pressure, resulting in strong winds. Additionally, certain weather patterns like thunderstorms, hurricanes, and cold fronts can also lead to high winds.


What causes the strong winds in a tornado?

Change in air pressure causes the strong winds. In fact, most winds that we experience on Earth are caused by change in air pressure. Usually significant changes in air pressure occur over a large area and therefore it's only a slow change in pressure over distance making light winds. In a tornado, you get a significant drop in air pressure over just a few feet of land. This causes the winds to get excessivly high.


Where are prevailing winds most common?

In the atmosphere which encloses the surface of the Earth.

Are tornadoes the most dangerous winds on the planet?

Yes. Tornadoes produce the most destructive winds on Earth. Hurricanes can have higher death tolls, but for them, wind is not the greastest danger.


What causes the speed of a tornado?

Most winds on earth are produced by pressure differences. The greater the pressure change over a given distance, the greater the wind speed. Tornadoes produce a large pressure drop over a very short distance, resulting in extremely high winds.
