Even in weak tornado, trees may lose branches or be uprooted. In stronger tornadoes many trees may be snapped or uprooted while some smaller plants are flattened. Violent tornadoes can rip plants out of the ground and creat swaths of complete deforestation. In the most extreme cases, all vegetation may be removed. Even grass can be scoured from the ground.

Where do you go during a tornado if you have no basement and you live in a trailer?

If you live in a trailer with no basement, the safest place to go during a tornado is a designated storm shelter or a nearby sturdy building. If neither are available, seek shelter in a low-lying area such as a ditch and cover your head to protect yourself from flying debris. It's important to have a plan in place and know the safest options before a tornado occurs.


How does a landspout that flatens crops form?

A landspout is a type of tornado that forms from the bottom up, unlike traditional tornadoes that form from the top down. When a landspout touches down over crops, the swirling winds can flatten them due to the strong rotational forces it generates. This can occur when the touchdown point of the landspout coincides with a field of crops, leading to damage from the intense winds.

How have people adapted to live with tornadoes?

Additionally, community drills and education programs help prepare residents for potential tornado disasters.
