A multiple vortex tornado may appear to consist of several smaller tornadoes which usually don't last more than a few seconds each. However, often the suction vortices may be hidden withing the main funnel. See the links for videos of tornadoes with visible suction vortices.

What else can I help you with?
Can tornadoes merge together?
Not really, there is a such thing as a multiple vortex tornado. These tornadoes have smaller, stronger vorticies moving around inside of the tornado. Sometimes a multivortex tornado can have the appearance of being two or more tornadoes but it still is one tornado.
When a tornado disappears then comes back is called?
In some cases one tornado will dissipate completely, and then a completely new tornado will form afterward from the same thunderstorm. This is called a tornado family.
What caused the formation of the tornado to multiple?
The appears to be asking about multiple vortex tornadoes. The process of how a tornado becomes multiple vortex is called vortex breakdown. Thi occurs when the wind in a tornado is spinning so fast that it cannot reach the center. The low pressure instead draws air down the middle. This causes the tornado to expand. When the downward moving air reaches the ground it spreads out. Complex interactions between this outward moving air and air flowing into the tornado leads to the formation of smaller vortices within the tornado.
What is the difference between a tornado outbreak and a tornado family?
A tornado outbreak is a series of multiple tornadoes (usually at least six) produced by the same storm system (i.e. a system of multiple storms) in a geographic area in a relatively short period of time (usually 48 hours or less). A tornado family is a series of tornadoes produced in succession by a single storm as it goes through cycles. In a tornado outbreak the tornado tracks are scattered across a given area such as a state or several states. In a tornado family several tornado tracks occur along the same approximate line. Sometimes there are several tornado families within an outbreak.
What was the worst recorded Multiple vortex tornado?
The worst tornado that is known to have been multiple vortex was the Tri-State tornado of March 18 1925. This was the worst tornado in U.S. history with a death toll of 695. At certain points along its path it was observed to have two or three funnels.
What do what do whirlwinds look like?
A tornado
What is a multivortrex tornado?
A multivortex or multiple vortex tornado is a tornado that has multiple suction vortices or subvorticies inside the main circulation. These short-lived vorticies are more intense than the rest of the tornado, sometimes packing wind up to 100 mph faster than the main circulation. Although the subvorticies are often obscured by the main funnel they sometimes show themselves as multiple funnels moving around a common center. It is still one tornado, however, even though it may look like two or more.
What does the area look like after tornado how many people die from tornadoes?
It would depend on the severity of the tornado.
How does clouds look like wen a tornado is up?
a funnel
How does a tornado look like?
A tornado looks either looks tall and skiny, short and fat,or medium sized.
What does a tornado look like without the funnel?
Without a funnel, a tornado will likely appear as a whirling cloud of dust or debris. If there is not enough of that present, then the tornado will be invisible.
What continents look like a big and a small tornado?
Asia , i am guessing
What is the usual shape of a tornado?
Tornadoes come in different shapes, and the shape changes during the life of the tornado. Some tornadoes are like thin tubes or ropes, some look like large wedges. If it is wrapped in rain, or there isn't enough light, it can be hard to see a tornado. Sometimes clouds may look like a tornado but aren't, so looking for other clues like rotation is important.
Can tornadoes merge together?
Not really, there is a such thing as a multiple vortex tornado. These tornadoes have smaller, stronger vorticies moving around inside of the tornado. Sometimes a multivortex tornado can have the appearance of being two or more tornadoes but it still is one tornado.
Why do tornadoes look like spaghetti?
It is rather unusual for a tornado to look like spaghetti. If a tornado does take on such an appearance it most likely means the tornado is dissipating or "roping out." It is believed that this occurs when cold air chokes of the warm air that feeds the mesocyclone, the rotating updraft that drives the tornado. When this happens the tornado begins to shrink and weaken. Winds within the parent storm can somtimes cause a tornado at this stage to bend into unusual shapes.
When a tornado disappears then comes back is called?
In some cases one tornado will dissipate completely, and then a completely new tornado will form afterward from the same thunderstorm. This is called a tornado family.
What does the inside of a tornado look like?
Within the funnel it looks like a very thick, fast-moving fog. The center of the tornado may be clear, giving the appearance of a tube.
