The tornado originates from a larger circulation within the parent storm cell called a mesocyclone. This gets constricted by a downdraft within the storm, causing it to tighten, intensify, and extend toward the ground. As the developing vortex extends toward the ground, it draws in air from underneath. However, once it reaches the ground, this is no longer possible, and so pressure at the center drops. This drop in pressure increases wind speed in the vortex as it draws in air from the sides, accelerating it to great speeds. The vortex is now a tornado.
Tornadoes cannot form in space. A tornado is a vortex of air. There is no air in space.
Before a tornado occurs, the atmosphere needs to be unstable, with warm, moist air at the surface and cold, dry air aloft. Wind shear is also crucial, as it creates the rotation necessary for a tornado to form. Storm systems or supercell thunderstorms often provide the ideal conditions for tornado development.
Tornadoes typically form from severe thunderstorms in a weather system where warm, moist air collides with cool, dry air. The spinning motion starts when wind directions and speeds vary at different altitudes, creating a horizontal rotation. When this rotation is tilted vertically by rising air, a tornado can develop and touch down on the ground.
There are a couple ways in which a tornado can form, both involving the updraft of a thunderstorm. In the classic model of tornado formation, the updraft of the thunderstorm starts rotating due to interaction with wind shear (differences in wind speed and direction with altitude) and may be influenced by the general rotation of the parent storm system. The tornado then develops from this rotating updraft. In the other model, by which landspouts and most waterspouts form, a broad-level circulation at the ground gets caught in the updraft of a developing thunderstorm, becoming narrower and more intense.
No!
That would be a tornado. Once the process starts, a tornado can form in a matter of seconds. Hurricanes, by contrast, usually take several days to form and are easy to track.
A tornado starts out as a funnel cloud.
A water spout is a type of tornado that forms over water. It happens when a tornado crosses over a body of water and starts pulling up water into the air. The spinning motion of the tornado creates a funnel-shaped cloud with water droplets.
The area in which the tornado happens can erode the area away cause the animals that lived there to have no home or die of the tornado
new molecules starts to form
Partially. A tornado warning means that a tornado is likely to form or already has formed.
When two tornadoes combine, it is known as a tornado outbreak. The resulting tornado can become larger, stronger, and more destructive as it merges with the energy and circulation of the other tornado. The combined tornado can create a wider path of destruction and pose an increased threat to affected areas.
well i think a tornado can form anywhere
No. A tornado warning means that a tornado is likely to form or has already been spotted.
the foetus gets bigger and starts to form into a baby

A tornado is a violent swirling funnel that usually happens in very intense thunderstorms. They form when thunderstorms start rotating due to interactions with wind shear. This rotation then tightens and intensifies to form a tornado.
