They can turn either direction in either the north or south hemisphere, as they are too small to be affected by the Coriolis Force.
Dust devils usually form on hot sunny days on bare soil.
True tornadoes only form on earth, as far as scientists know. These may become red if they encounter red dust. The planet Mars, had red dust devils. Dust devils resemble tornadoes but they are not actually tornadoes.
Tornadoes can only form during thunderstorms, though sometimes the sun may peak through from the side to illuminate a tornado. Other than that, no. Sometimes dust devils will develop on sunny days. Dust devils are whirlwinds that look rather like tornadoes, but they are not. Dust devils are usually harmless.
All planets in the solar system rotate, but not all in the same direction, Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune all rotate in one direction, while Venus, Uranus, and the dwarf planet Pluto rotate in the opposite direction.
it rotates in a counterclockwise direction....
On very rare occasions dust devils can kill.

Tri-City Dust Devils was created in 2001.
Yes, dust devils can form just about anywhere.
Dust devils usually form on hot sunny days on bare soil.
Dust devils are non-living features found in Australia. They are harmless, dust-laden whirlwinds.
Dust devils form in sunny weather while tornadoes require thunderstorms to form. Dust devils are much weaker and generally smaller than tornadoes as well.
yes
No. Dust devils can form in most places, however, where there is a bare surface that can be significantly heated by the sun.
If you mean a dust devil, then technically yes. Though they aren't really tornadoes, dust devils have killed people. However, fatalities from dust devils are extremely rare, only a handful have ever been recorded. Most of the time dust devils are harmless.
Waterspouts and MAYBE dust devils
No. Dust devils are whirlwinds that form from low-level convection in the absence of a thunderstorm. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms. However, on rare occasions dust devils can cause minor damage with winds comparable to those of an EF0 tornado. Landspout tornadoes can sometimes look rather like dust devils.
