In terms of wind speed, yes. Tornadoes are the only storms on earth that can produce gusts in excess of 300 mph. However, tornadoes this intense are very rare.
No. A tornado is a microscale storm, as very few tornadoes get to be over 2 kilometers in diameter.
No, tornadoes can form in different parts of a storm system, including the rear but also in the front or along the edges. Tornadoes are typically associated with severe thunderstorms and can develop wherever the conditions are right for their formation within the storm.
Tornadoes themselves cannot be seen from space because they are blocked from above by the thunderstorms that produce them. The link below shows a storm satellite of a storm system that was producing tornadoes at the time the picture was taken. The tornadoes themselves formed under the storms that are seen as the right-hand branch of the spiral-shaped system. Again, what you are seeing is the storm that produced the tornadoes, not the tornadoes themselves. At this resolution individual tornadoes would be too small to see anyway.
They can't combine into a single storm, if that's what you mean, as tornadoes and hurricanes operate on different levels of magnitude within the atmosphere. Howevere, many hurricanes spawn tornadoes in their outer storm bands.
About 1% of thunderstorms produce tornadoes.
The strongest tornadoes produce the fastest winds of any storm on earth, but tornadoes are small compared to most storms.
The strongest tornadoes do, yes. In some cases tornadoes can produce winds over 300 mph. No other storm on earth can match that.
The fastest storm on record is the Tri-State Tornado, which occurred in the central US in 1925. With estimated wind speeds reaching up to 300 mph, it holds the title for the fastest tornado ever recorded.
No, tornadoes are not the fastest wind on Earth. The fastest winds on Earth are found in weather phenomena such as jet streams and hurricanes. Tornadoes can have extremely high wind speeds, but they are localized and short-lived compared to other weather events.
Most tornadoes are associated with a type of storm called a supercell.
Tornadoes are most often spawned by a type of storm called a supercell.
No. A tornado is a microscale storm, as very few tornadoes get to be over 2 kilometers in diameter.
Tornadoes
Both are, but it is probably more likely with a tornado.
Supercells are normally associated with tornadoes.
People who study tornadoes are a type of meteorologist.
Tornadoes are studied by meteorologist, some of whom are storm chasers.
