Tornadoes grow larger primarily through the interaction of warm, moist air at the surface and cooler, drier air aloft, creating instability in the atmosphere. This unstable air can lead to the development of supercell thunderstorms, which can produce rotating updrafts known as mesocyclones. As these updrafts strengthen, they can draw in more air and moisture, feeding the tornado and allowing it to grow in size and intensity. Factors such as wind shear and the presence of a defined rotation also contribute to the tornado's development and growth.

What do tornadoes typically look like?
Tornadoes look like funnels of wind, starting small where it touches the ground and growing bigger as it reaches the sky. They would have dirt, grass, wood, anything it picks up swirling inside it.
Are tornadoes the strongest storms on earth?
In terms of total energy output no. That title would probably go to hurricanes which are much bigger and longer lasting than tornadoes. However, tornadoes are the most intense storms on earth, with winds that can exceed 300 mph.
How big do tornadoes get in diameter?
Tornadoes can vary greatly in size, with average diameters of about 100-600 meters (330-2,000 feet). However, some tornadoes can grow to be 1-2 miles wide (1.6-3.2 km) or even larger in extreme cases. These large tornadoes are known as "wedge tornadoes."
Do stars grow bigger as they get older?
Yes they do get bigger as they age. For example, the Sun is over 4.5 billion years old and look at how big it is.
Why are tornadoes and hail associated together most times?
Tornadoes and hail are often associated together because they both form in severe thunderstorms. In these storms, strong updrafts can lift hailstones high into the atmosphere, where they grow larger before falling to the ground. Tornadoes can also form from the rotation and instability within these same severe storms.
Why could cities become more vulnerable to tornadoes as the cities grow?
As cities grow, they become bigger targets. There are more neighborhoods that tornadoes can hit. Tornadoes of recent years have struck neighborhoods that were open country 20 years ago.
How can you make your breasts grow bigger and bigger?

Are little tornadoes stronger then bigger ones?
No. Usually the larger tornadoes are the stronger ones, but not always. There have been a few small but very violent tornadoes as well as large but fairly weak ones.
Can tornadoes collide to make even bigger tornadoes?
It can happen, but it is rare. When tornadoes do merge it usually involves a large tornado absorbing a small one, so the size of the vortex will not be significantly influenced.
How do tornadoes develop and grow stronger?
the way how it is grow is by the current of the weather path and the type of gust it makes
What makes you grow bigger and bigger?
you eat healthy food.
How do eagles get bigger?
they grow
How do tornadoes gain force and get bigger?
Tornadoes strengthen as the mesocyclone, or rotating updraft that powers them, intensifies with the parent thunderstorm. The factors governing the strength of an individual thunderstorm are complicated and not fully understood. This is doubly true of tornadoes.
How are tornadoes good?
they pull out plants and let new ones grow
Four letter verb for grow bigger?
