What else can I help you with?
Which of these is a tall dry funnel of swirling strong wind that moves very quickly.?
That would be a tornado. It is a rapidly rotating column of air that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground. Tornadoes are capable of causing extensive damage with their high wind speeds.
How much wind does it take for a tornado?
There is no solidly set minimum wind speed for a tornado. The Enhanced Fujita scale starts an EF0 at 65 mph, but tornadoes have occurred with estimated winds lower than that. Tornadoes are defined by the amnner in which the air moves rather than the wind speed. A tornado is a rotating vortex of strong wind that onnects to both the ground and the cloud base.
Which direction will the wind blow when a tornado is near?
That varies. If you are close enough to be in the area of the tornado's inflow then the wind will blow almost directly towards the tornado, perhaps a little to the right of that direction. In that case the wind direction will depend on where the tornado is relative to you. If you are beyond the inflow area for the tornado, then nothing about the wind direction would indicate the approaching tornado.
What was the wind speed the worlds biggest tornado?
The largest tornado ever recorded was the El Reno, Oklahoma tornado of May 31, 2013. This tornado was 2.6 miles wide. Doppler radar measured a wind gust in the tornado at 296 mph, the second highest wind speed ever recorded in a tornado.
Does a tornado suck or blow wind?
A tornado does both. The strong winds in a tornado rotate rapidly around a center, creating a low-pressure area that can suck in objects and debris from its surroundings while also blowing them around with great force.
Is there such thing as tornado wind?
Yes, in simplest terms a tornado is a vortex of very strong wind.
Can a tornado destroy a house?
Yes. In a strong enough tornado wind and debris carried by the wind can destroy houses.
Do tornadoes blow wind?
Yes. A tornado is essentially a very strong vortex of wind.
What is a tall dry funnel of swirling strong wind?
A tornado.
Is the wind inside a tornado calm?
It is believed that there is a calm "eye" at the center of a tornado. But mostly the winds in a tornado are very strong.
Is a strong storm that has a wind tunnel a tornado?
No. A tornado is a violently rotating column of air the is in contact with both the ground and the cloud base. Violent winds alone do not make a tornado. A wind tunnel effect simply occurs when buildings or terrain funnel the wind to increase its speed.
What is the opposite of a tornado?
There is not opposite of a tornado, except perhaps a clear day with no wind.
How does a tornado relate to weather?
A tornado is a violent weather events, specifically a very intense, rotating wind storm. They are produced by strong thunderstorms.
How strong does a tornado have to be to pick up a car?
Usually a tornado has to be at least an EF2 (estimated wind 111 to 135 mph) to lift a car.
What do you call the center of the tornado?
The center of a tornado is called the "eye" or "eyewall." It is a relatively calm area with lower wind speeds compared to the strong winds in the surrounding tornado.
How can you be affected by a wildfire?
If the wildfire is big enough and the wind is strong enough it can produce a fire tornado.
Why is a tornado live in winter and dust land and break city?
because of the wind their strong wind can break towers because wind is moving air and cloud that blow a long time and air blow and flowing and air break not break but tornado occurs at water is called a waterspout AND A landspout is a tornado that live a dust land not dust land but they live on land dust devil are small tornado that occurs at dust land not land and city because they need dust to have wind to be powerful and strong and they are not very strong they are weak because they live on a dustland
