What is the main reason tornadoes form?
When cold air and hot air mix together it forms a tornado.
Is a tornado cold or hot air?
Tornadoes typically form in a warm air mass, as that is what provides the energy, though it is often near a boundary with a cooler or drier air mass. However, due tot he pressure drop the air in a tornado is cooler than its surroundings.
How can the sun's energy cause a tornado?
Just about all of the energy that drives weather comes from the sun. The sun heats the surface of the Earth and bodies of water, making the air in some areas hot and humid. Under the right conditions that hot, humid air can rise and the moisture can condense to form thunderstorms. Thunderstorms, particularly a type called supercells, are what cause tornadoes.
What causes to form in tornado valley?
It's hot air from the mexican golf that meets cold air from north America or Canada, when that happens it Will make turbulence and break into tornados :) every year about 750 tornadoes break out in the middle- and southstates
What is an incorrect hypothesis for how a tornado is formed?
An in correct and, unfortunately, commonly cited explanation of how tornadoes form is along the lines of "hot and cold air mix together ans swirl." While a collision of warm and cold air often plays a role in tornado formation, it is not a direct cause of tornadoes.
What is the main reason tornadoes form?
When cold air and hot air mix together it forms a tornado.
What human activities can increase or worsen the impact of a tornado?
Humans can not effect a tornado. Only nature can make a tornado occur. The cold and hot air curl together and form the tornado.
Is a tornado cold or hot air?

What does cold and hot air make?
it makes a tornado
What does Hot and cold air moving making what?
it makes a tornado
What is the effect of hot weather on Air Blowers?
to my cauculations it is a tornado
Why doesn't a tornado happen when just cold air meets or hot air meets?
Because warm and cold air alone won't produce the rotation needed for a tornado. First, the warm air mass must be moist so that when the collision occurs thunderstorms form. Second, the speed and/or direction of the wind must vary with altitude in what is called wind shear. This tilts thunderstorms, separating the updraft from the downdraft and thus allowing them to become stronger last last longer. Second, the wind shear creates rolling air masses that can start the thunderstorms rotating. Under the right conditions a tornado can develop from this rotation. How exactly this happens is not fully understood.
Where do hot air balloon fly form?
Hot air balloons can pick up and fly from just about anywhere. As long as the surface is flat a hot air balloon can fly from it.
What happens when rapidly falling cold air meets rapidly rising hot air?
A tornado forms
Is it hot outside after a tornado?
Generally not. The storms that produce tornado form more often along cold fronts than warm fronts. So more often the weather is hot before a tornado and cooler afterwards.
What does Hot and cold air moving make?
When hot and cold air mix, they create convection currents. Hot air rises, displacing the cooler air, which then sinks. This movement of air creates wind and can affect weather patterns.
Does it have to be hot to make a tornado?
No, tornadoes form when warm, moist air collides with cool, dry air. Temperature differences at various levels of the atmosphere, not the temperature on the ground, contribute to the creation of tornadoes.
