What was the category of the great Natchez tornado?

The Great Natchez tornado was never rated. The Fujita scale, which rates tornadoes, was crated in 1971, but has been used to rate tornadoes retrospectively. To rate a tornado you need information on the severity of the damage it did and the quality of construction of the buildings it hit. Unfortunately, as you look at older records, there is generally less useful information. Because of this, no tornado that occurred before 1871 has received a rating. The Natchez tornado was in 1840. That said, by comparing this tornado with other major killers, it is reasonable to say that it was probably an F4 or F5.


What causes a tornado to stop?

Tornadoes stop when the atmospheric conditions that sustain them, such as warm, moist air rising and interacting with cool, dry air, change. This can lead to a decrease in the rotation within the storm and ultimately cause the tornado to dissipate. Other factors like terrain or the interaction with other weather systems can also impact a tornado's longevity.


Has anyone ever survived in a tornado?

What do geologists look for?

Geologists look for clues in rock formations, minerals, and fossils to understand the Earth's history, such as past climates, plate movement, and volcanic activity. They also search for valuable resources like oil, natural gas, and minerals to assess economic potential and environmental impact. Understanding the Earth's processes through careful observation and analysis helps geologists make predictions about future events and manage geological risks.

Can meteorologists forecast the strength of a tornado?

No. The intensity of a tornado cannot be truly determined the intensity of a tornado until after it passes. A meteorologist can, based on radar, look for clues that a strong tornado is in progress, but there is a good deal of uncertainty. In long-term forecasts we can sometimes tell if a storm system has the potential to produce strong to violent tornadoes, but cannot determine where individual tornadoes will occur or how strong they will be, as every outbreak that produces strong tornadoes also produces weak ones.
