What are natural hazzards?
Natural hazards are hazards that occur in nature and endanger the people living with in a certain area. Ex. Tornadoes, hurricanes, Tsunamis, and floods.
What type of succession do tornadoes cause?
Tornadoes cause secondary succession. They destroy vegetation but leave most of the soil and some seeds in place.
How do tornadoes destroy the environment?
Tornadoes have very strong winds that are capable of snapping and up rooting trees and in some cases pulling the grass out of the ground. When human development is struck buildings are similarly affected with additional secondary damage from flying debris.
What do hail and tornadoes have in common?
They both are formed in strong thunderstorms. Both hail and tornadoes are forms of severe weather that originate from thunderstorms, most often an especially powerful class of thunderstorms called supercells. It is fairly common for hail to accompany tornadoes. If any thunderstorm produces hail at least 1 inch in diameter, winds of 58 mph or greater, or a tornado it is classified as severe.
What are the 3 general categories of tornadoes?
Tornadoes are sometimes divided into "weak" tornadoes "strong" and "violent" tornadoes. Weak tornadoes are those rated EF0 and EF1. Most tornadoes are weak. Strong tornadoes are those rated EF2 and EF3. Violent tornadoes are those rated EF4 and EF5. They are the rarest of tornadoes, only about 1% of tornadoes are this strong.

What hazards are seen during tornadoes?
Hazards that tornadoes bring include:Extremely powerful windsFlying debrisFalling trees and collapsing buildingsDowned power lines and broken gas linesPower outagesGlass and sharp objects left on the groundTornadoes may be accompanied by other hazards that are not directly related to the tornadoes themselves. These can include:Large hailDamaging thunderstorm windsCloud-to-ground lightningFlash floodingReduced visibility due to hail fog or heavy rain
What is the distribution of hazards?
Distribution of hazards is a term often associated with the probability of the appearance of natural disasters and the chances of survival. This applies to the geographical extent of some hazards, such as floods, volcanoes, tornadoes, earthquakes and effects of climat changes.
Can most natural hazards such as earthquakes tornadoes and hurricanes can be prevented?
No. No natural disasters can be prevented. We can only prepare for them.
Are there tornado reporters?
Yes. They are called weather spotters. They are on the lookout for a variety of weather hazards including tornadoes.
How are flash floods and tornados alike?
Both tornadoes and flash floods are weather hazards that develop quickly.
What type of scientist studies natural hazards such as volcanoes and tornadoes?
It depends on the type of hazard. Volcanoes are studied by volcanologists, who are a variety of geologist, while tornadoes are studied by meteorologists (weather scientists). Most natural hazards are of a meterological or geological nature, and so will be studied by meteorolgists or geologists.
Which type of succession follows tornadoes?
Secondary succession follows tornadoes, if there is any succession. Tornadoes can bring down many trees and damage vegetation, but they generally leave the soil intact.
What type of succession do tornadoes cause?
Tornadoes cause secondary succession. They destroy vegetation but leave most of the soil and some seeds in place.
