What is the best course of action if you see a thunderstorm approaching in the water?

Very little in a nutshell. Expanses of water are regularly hit by lightning and quite possibly you may be the highest thing in the water so you are more likely to get hit. Lightning can travel 20 foot or more through water so even if you don't get hit directly you could still get killed (eg If you were swimming near a sailing boat). Swimming pools are also unsafe. All government advice states get out of the water during a thunderstorm even if it seems distant, this includes indoor swimming pools (though the risk is less).


How far from the heavy rain of a thunderstorm can lightning strike?

Lightning can strike up to 30 miles from the parent storm cell, though such cases are rare.


What is a Erosin?

It seems like there might be a typo in your question. If you meant "erosion," it is the process of wearing away material from the Earth's surface through processes like wind, water, and ice. Erosion can lead to changes in landscapes over time.


Can tornadoes turn sideways?

A tornado can become bend in such a way that a portion of the funnel is sideways, yes. However, it the vortex is completely sideways so that it does not make contact witht he ground. If you see a long cloud that seems to rotate on its side during a thunderstorm, what you see is most likely not a tornado but a roll cloud.


How do tornadoes stop?

It is not fully understood about how exactly tornadoes form, grow and die. Tornado researchers are still trying to solve the tornado puzzle, but for every piece that seems to fit they often uncover new pieces that need to be studied. However, current knowledge indicates that a tornado usually dissipates when cold air undercuts the updraft of the tornado's parent thunderstorm. This causes the updraft to weaken until it can no longer support a tornado.
