What else can I help you with?
Tornado ground speed?
I believe you are asking how fast tornadoes can travel. This varies. The average tornado moves at 35 miles per hour. Tornadoes may be stationary or may, in very rare cases, move at over 70 mph.
How fast did the largest tornado recorded in the US travel forward?
The largest tornado on record in the U.S. varied in speed. For the early part of its time on the ground it traveled at about 30 mph before suddenly accelerating to 55 mph.
What is the most common question about tornadoes?
The most common question about tornadoes is likely "How fast can a tornado travel?"
What is a name for a funnel cloud touching the ground?
A funnel cloud that touches the ground is commonly known as a tornado.
What is the part of the tornado that touches the ground called?
A tornado that doesn't touch the ground isn't a tornado; it is a funnel cloud. However if the funnel is pulling debris off the ground or making some other type of contact with the ground it is a tornado.
About how fast dose a tornado travel across the ground?
average of 30mph and can reach over 70mph
How fast does a tornado travel on ground mph mile?
The average tornado travels at 35 mph. Some tornadoes are stationary or nearly stationary. One tornado in 1925 was determined to have traveled at 73 mph at one point.
How fast on ground does a tornado go?
It varies widely. A typical tornado travels at between 30 and 40 mph, but some tornadoes are stationary, while others can travel at over 70 mph.
What are safety measures to take before a tornado?
Get under ground as fast as you can.
How fast does a tornado travel on ground in km?
I assume you mean kilometers per hour as a kilometer is a unit of distance, not speed. Tornadoes vary greatly in speed. They may be stationary or travel at more than 100 km/h. A typical tornado travels at about 50 km/h.
How fast do tornadoes travel?
If you mean how fast does a tornado travel, the average forwards speed is about 30 mph, but it can range from 0 mph to over 70.
Tornado ground speed?
I believe you are asking how fast tornadoes can travel. This varies. The average tornado moves at 35 miles per hour. Tornadoes may be stationary or may, in very rare cases, move at over 70 mph.
How fast does a tornado travel?
Tornadoes travel at speeds ranging from 0 to over 70 mph. The average is 30 mph.
How many km does a tornado could stay on the ground?
It varies widely. The average tornado is on the ground for about 8 kilometers. But some tornadoes are only on the ground for a few meters. At the other end, other tornadoes have had damage paths hundreds of kilometers long. The longest tornado damage path on record is 352 kilometers.
What happens after surface winds slow down in a tornado due to ground friction?
When surface winds slow down in a tornado due to ground friction, the tornado may weaken or dissipate altogether. This is because a tornado's strength is dependent on the fast rotation of air at the surface, so when this rotation slows down, the tornado's intensity is reduced.
How fast did the largest tornado recorded in the US travel forward?
The largest tornado on record in the U.S. varied in speed. For the early part of its time on the ground it traveled at about 30 mph before suddenly accelerating to 55 mph.
