What are the violent and extreme tornadoes like?

Answer 1

In a single vortex tornado the most violent winds are at the edge of the core. Some tornadoes have multiple vortices inside the main circulation. In that case the strongest winds are in these suction vortices.

Answer 2

Exactly how and why tornadoes form and become so powerful is not fully understood. However, a few things are known.

• Tornadoes can produce the fastest winds on earth, in some instances exceeding 300 mph.
• Tornadoes produce a pressure drop comparable to that found in a hurricane but over a much shorter distance. (in general meteorology the greater the pressure difference over a given distance the greater the wind speed)
• Tornadoes usually develop when a larger circulation called a mesocyclone tightens and becomes more focused in an area.

Answer 3

The term "violent tornado" usually refers to a tornado that has reach EF4 or EF5 intensity, the highest ratings on the Enhanced Fujita scale. These tornadoes can inflict tremendous damage. Well-constructed houses are leveled or even blown away. Trees are stripped of the bark and may be lifted entirely into the air. Large objects get thrown great distance. Additionally, violent tornadoes are often large with damage paths that can be more than half a mile or even more than a mile wide. In some cases these tornadoes can destroy entire towns.

Answer 4

All tornadoes come from thunderstorms, so it would simply be a tornado. A violent thunderstorm capable of spawning tornadoes is usually a supercell.

Answer 5

Totally!!!
