It is unknown as efforts to measure the barometric pressure inside a tornado have met with little success. The millibar is a measure of barometric pressure, with 892 millibars being very low for a pressure that would be found on Earth, indicating a very intense storm.

Even then, the scales we currently have for rating tornadoes use damage-based in estimates rather than pressure estimates.

1004 millibars is how many inches of mercury?

1004 millibars is approximately equal to 29.65 inches of mercury.


Natural gas pressure of 26 millibars equals how many psi?

26 millibars = 0.377 psi


Does Hg stand for millibars?

No, Hg stands for mercury. It is a unit of pressure commonly used in meteorology to measure barometric pressure, where 1 inch of mercury (inHg) is approximately equal to 33.86 millibars.


What three units do meteorologists use to measure atmoshperic pressure?

Meteorologists commonly measure atmospheric pressure using three units: millibars (mb), inches of mercury (inHg), and hectopascals (hPa). Millibars and hectopascals are equivalent, with 1 hPa equal to 1 mb. Inches of mercury is often used in the United States, while millibars and hectopascals are more prevalent in scientific contexts globally.


Is a hurricane bad or a tornado?

Both natural disasters are equally terrible. Magnitude may affect how badly humans, animals, and the environment are affected. Hurricanes are classified by wind speed... A Category 1 hurricane would have winds up to 95 mph winds, while a Category 5 hurricane would have greater than 156 mph winds. A tornado is classified a little differently... according to the Fujita Scale, a tornado is classified by damage. Both a hurricane and a tornado have the potential to cause an equal amount of damage; a tornado might be more concentrated, while a hurricane could be more widespread. Overall, though, hurricanes can cause more damage. There have been many more hurricanes that caused over $1 billion in damage than tornadoes with the same amount, and more hurricanes than tornadoes with death tolls over 500.
