That depends on the tornado. In the very weakest tornadoes it would be possible to stand with some difficult inside the tornado itself. In a strong enough tornado the winds may be strong enough to pull you in from as much as 200 yards away, perhaps more.
Yes, before a tornado, the air may feel eerily calm and still. This is often due to the sinking air and lack of wind in the immediate vicinity of the storm. It's important to take shelter if you notice this sudden tranquil moment, as it may precede the violent tornado winds.
That varies. If you are close enough to be in the area of the tornado's inflow then the wind will blow almost directly towards the tornado, perhaps a little to the right of that direction. In that case the wind direction will depend on where the tornado is relative to you. If you are beyond the inflow area for the tornado, then nothing about the wind direction would indicate the approaching tornado.
Yes, it is possible for multiple tornadoes to form side by side during the same weather event. This phenomenon, known as a tornado family or tornado outbreak, can occur when multiple supercell thunderstorms develop in close proximity with conditions conducive for tornado formation. Each tornado within a tornado family is usually spawned by a different storm cell.
The calmest part of a tornado is the center or "eye" of the storm. It is characterized by light wind and possibly even clear skies, providing a brief respite before the destructive winds of the tornado return as it moves on.
Before a storm develops into a tornado, it typically forms a rotating wall cloud. This wall cloud can often be seen beneath a thunderstorm and is a key indicator of a possible tornado forming. It is important to monitor the situation closely and take appropriate precautions if a wall cloud is observed.

A vacuum cleaner simulates a tornado by creating a spinning vortex that sucks in debris and dirt. Similar to a real tornado, the swirling motion creates a low-pressure system that pulls objects toward the center. The intense suction power of a vacuum cleaner resembles the strong winds in a tornado that pick up and carry objects.
As with a vacuum a tornado continuously generates low pressure that essentially sucks air inwards, sometimes taking objects with it.
if its sucked something before then of course it sucks
before a tornado it is usally calm after a strong tornado there is lots of debris and during a tornado there are things flying everywhere
Joplin was under a tornado warning for about 17 minutes before the tornado formed and 19 minutes before it entered the city.
They can, but not without endangering their lives.
Yes. Baltimore was hit by an F2 tornado in 1973, an F0 tornado in 1996, an EF1 tornado in 2010, and an EF0 tornado in 2013.
The process of a tornado forming is called tornado genesis. Usually a tornado is a funnel cloud before it touches down.
That varies. If you are close enough to be in the area of the tornado's inflow then the wind will blow almost directly towards the tornado, perhaps a little to the right of that direction. In that case the wind direction will depend on where the tornado is relative to you. If you are beyond the inflow area for the tornado, then nothing about the wind direction would indicate the approaching tornado.
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.
There is no before or after Tornado Alley. Tornado Alley is a place, not an event.Before a tornado outbreak the weather is often hot and humid. After the outbreak it is usually cooler and drier, but many areas are heavily damaged.
