Yes. Or at least there have probably been tornadoes for as long has Earth has had approximately the same atmosphere that it has now.
There have been three tornadoes in Davenport Iowa since records began in 1950.
No, the sun does not have tornadoes. Tornadoes require an atmosphere to form, which the sun does not have. However, the sun does have solar storms, which are different phenomena involving eruptions of hot gas and energy from its surface.
There have been tornadoes reported in all 50 states in the United States in the year 1950. While some states have a higher frequency of tornadoes, it is possible for tornadoes to occur in any state under the right conditions.
Tornadoes have occurred since the dinosaurs and beyond. The first recorded tornado was, to my knowledge, was in Britain in 1091. The size was F4, and it destroyed the London Bridge, homes, and chapels. So, in conclusion, tornadoes were always known.
No. Many tornadoes form in a rain-free portion of their parent thunderstorms. Some tornadoes form with low-precipitation supercells, which produce little or no rain.
Take cover...and fast. Not sure about your question. Tornadoes will be tornadoes. As I said before take cover. I've always been taught to get into a closet. Or get into a bathtub with a mattress on top of you.
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.
Enormous vortices have been observed on the sun that resemble tornadoes. They have been called "solar tornadoes" but they are not tornadoes by the meteorological definition.
There is no official data as to how many cows die a year from tornadoes. Some tornadoes have been reported to have killed hundreds of cattle, but it is unclear how common such an event is.
To a limited degree, yes. Tornadoes with stronger winds have a tendency to be larger, but this is not always the case, as some relatively small tornadoes have been incredibly violent.
yes there has been reports of tornadoes in Belize
There have been many thousands of tornadoes in the United states. This country averages over 1000 tornadoes every year.
Tornadoes and thunderstorms have always been frequent in the U.S. However, advances in technology such as Doppler radar and cell phones have made it easier to detect and report such events.
Strength is determined by wind speed, not size, in tornadoes. The Enhanced Fujita Scale categorizes tornadoes based on their estimated wind speeds and resulting damage. Tornado size can vary, with larger tornadoes usually associated with stronger wind speeds.
Of course tornadoes have been seen. They're not invisible. in fact, they're huge. You can see videos of tornadoes if you do a YouTube search.
Big tornadoes are usually strong, but not always. A large, poorly organized tornado is not likely to be very strong. Some tornadoes even weaken as they expand.
It has recently been found that there are vortices on the sun that superficially resemble tornadoes, but they are not true tornadoes.
