Dust swirling in the center of the funnel
A rain gauge is typically made up of a collecting container to capture rainwater, a measuring stick or ruler to measure the water level, and calibration markings to gauge the amount of rain that has fallen. Some rain gauges also include a funnel to direct rainwater into the collecting container more efficiently.
A funnel cloud is a condensation funnel made of water vapor, dust, dirt, and debris lifted upward from the ground in areas experiencing extremely low air pressure. It is the visible part of a tornado and is considered a tornado if it touches the ground.
Tornadoes are made by thunderstorms, made by cumulonimbus clouds. They appear as very tall white puffy clouds with a dark base and an anvil shaped top. Thunderstorms that can produce tornadoes also have a corkscrew appearance or with striations in the cloud tower.
The visible funnel of a tornado is composed of water droplets like an ordinary cloud, and so usually is the same color as the clouds that it extends from. Not all tornadoes are gray, however. Depending on lighting some may appear white or black. Tornadoes can also be colored by soil that they lift and become gray, black, brown, tan, or even red.
The formation of tornadoes and funnel clouds is complicated.First, a condition called wind shear, in which the speed or direction of the wind changes with altitude. If the shear is strong enough it can essentially tilt a thunderstorm, this separates the updraft and downdraft of the thunderstorm, preventing them from interfering with one another. This allows the storm to become stronger and last longer.Additionally, if the wind shear is strong enough it can start the air rolling in what is called horizontal vorticity. This horizontal vorticity can then be turned vertical by a thunderstorm's updraft. When this happens, the thunderstorm may start rotating. The rotation is especially strong in an updraft called a mesocyclone. If the storm intensifies rapidly enough, a relatively warm downdraft called a rear-flank downdraft or RFD can wrap around the bottom part of the mesocyclone. This can then tighten and intensify its rotation and to produce a funnel cloud If it produces damaging winds on the ground it becomes a tornado.
The pink color of the tornado's funnel seen by Ethan and Sarah was likely due to the scattering of sunlight by dust, debris, or particles inside the tornado, causing the light to take on a pink hue. This phenomenon can occur with certain lighting conditions and the materials present in the tornado.
A tornado may appear pink if it is lit up by the setting or rising sun. Note that you are far more likely to see a tornado at sunset than at sunrise.

No. While the funnel is made visible by condensation, it is mostly air.

because its made from a oil funnel like the one you use in the garage.
