Thunderstorms do not turn in tornadoes, but they can produce them. In fact all tornadoes form in thunderstorms.
Of these, tornadoes have the shortest duration.
A tornado warned storm is a thunderstorm for which a tornado warning has been issued, meaning that the storm is producing rotation that can spawn a tornado.
A tornado comes from a type of storm called a rotating thunderstorm, but is not a storm, itself.
A parent thunderstorm is the main thunderstorm that develops and produces other storms, such as supercell thunderstorms, within its vicinity. It provides the energy and dynamics needed for these smaller storms to form and intensify.
Before a tornado touches down it is called a funnel cloud, which looks like a tornado but does not reach the ground. A funnel cloud develops from the mesocyclone of a supercell thunderstorm. A supercell thunderstorm is characterized by the presence of a mesocyclone, which is a deep, continuously-rotating updraft.
A tornado/thunderstorm watch means that weather conditions are good for tornado/thunderstorm. A tornado/thunderstorm warning, however, means that conditions are extreme and a thunderstorm or tornado is likely. Conditions for either storm are very good at this stage.
A tornado descends from the base of a thunderstorm.
a tornado is formed by a thunderstorm
Hurricanes themselves are much larger than any thunderstorm or tornado.
Yes. A tornado can be though of as part of a larger parent thunderstorm, though most thunderstorms do not produce tornadoes.
well the thunderstorm builds to a super cell which is a sever thunderstorm then all it needs is a rotation
A rotating thunderstorm is also known as a supercell.
It is difficult to determine the worst thunderstorm ever recorded in the world as severity can vary based on different parameters like wind speed, rainfall, and damage caused. However, the Daulatpur-Saturia tornado in Bangladesh on April 26, 1989, is considered one of the deadliest thunderstorm events in history, with estimated casualties over 1,300 people.
It is often dark during a tornado not because of the tornado itself, but becasue of the parent thunderstorm. The thunderstorm consists of a very tall cumulonimbus cloud, which blocks out most sunlight.
A tornado is usually produced by a type of thunderstorm called a supercell.
Yes, by definition a tornado is produced by s thunderstorm.
Of these, tornadoes have the shortest duration.
