Tornadoes occur during severe thunderstorms and so are often preceded by heavy rain, strong winds, and hail. Specific signs that a tornado may soon develop include rotation in the clouds, a persistent lowering of the cloud base in or near that rotation, and a clear slot opening up near the rotation.

Some people report seeing greenish clouds before or during a tornado. While this phenomenon does sometimes occur, it is not necessarily associated with tornadoes.

Is it possible for an F6 tornado to form?

Yes, it is possible for an F6 tornado to form, although it is extremely rare and not officially recognized by the Enhanced Fujita Scale, which currently only goes up to F5. The conditions required for an F6 tornado to occur would be incredibly intense and destructive.


What does a pyramid look like if it got struck by a tornado?

If a pyramid were to be struck by a tornado, it would likely sustain damage to its exterior walls and possibly lose some stones or show signs of structural weakening. The tornado could cause debris to scatter around the base of the pyramid and may result in some visible destruction to nearby structures or buildings.


Is a late afternoon calmness and a yellow sky good warning sign that a tornado could occur?

No it is not. A yellow sky and calm conditions would only be associated with a tornado if you are on the tail end of a thunderstorm, and even then it would merely indicate that the storm was leaving more often than it would indicate a tornado. The yellow sky is simply a product of the light from the low sun passing through dense storm clouds. The only true sign that storm might produce a tornado is rotation in the clouds.If you are concerned about the potential for a tornado check the website of the National Weather Service or a battery-powered weather radio.


How many tornado names are there?

None. Tornadoes are not given names like hurricanes are. Some tornadoes are referred to by where they hit (e.g. the Tuscaloosa, Alabama tornado, the Oklahoma City tornado) or, on occasion something they did (the Tri-State tornado, the tornado of the elevens) . But such things are not true names, and if they were there would be too many to count.


What is better to find a tornado with. radar or aneroid barometer?

A a radar is better: it can detect a tornado at a distance. A barometer would be of no use unless the tornado came dangerously close.

What layer of the atmosphere would a tornado occur in?

A tornado would occur in the troposphere, the layer closest to the Earth.


What happens in a f6 tornado?

There is no such thing as an F6 tornado. The highest rating a tornado can be assigned is F5. Even if a tornado were to occur with winds in the supposed F6 range, damage would be no different from that of an F5 as all virtually structures would be obliterated anyway.


Does a tornado occur some place else but have a different name?

Tornadoes can occur almost anywhere that gets thunderstorms. What they are called depends on the language, though an English speaker would still call it a tornado.


Is the core of a tornado safe?

No. The core of a tornado is the area in which the strongest winds occur. Although the center itself may be calm in some tornadoes, you would still have to get through the intense winds of the tornado both going in and going out. Additionally, this eyelike structure is much smaller than the eye of a hurricane and would not likely be over any particular spot for more than a few seconds.

Would a tornado likely occur in Maryland?

Tornadoes can occur in Maryland, but they are relatively rare compared to other states in the tornado alley region. Maryland experiences an average of around 10 tornadoes per year, with the peak tornado season typically occurring in late spring and early summer. It's important for residents to stay informed about weather alerts and have a plan in place in case a tornado does occur.

Will a tornado damage a tank?

The tornado would not directly damage a tank. However, debris that the tornado is throwing around might. Storms have been known to impale metal signs into concrete. Any object with enough force behind it could damage the tank.

What does an space tornado do?

An space tornado is a theoretical phenomenon that would occur in the vacuum of space. It would likely result from powerful electromagnetic forces and solar activity, creating a swirling vortex of charged particles rather than air. The effects would depend on its size and proximity to objects in space, potentially causing disruptions to satellites and spacecraft.
