What happen when a tornado funnel reaches the ground?

When a tornado funnel reaches the ground, it can cause significant damage by destroying buildings, uprooting trees, and tossing objects into the air. This is the most dangerous phase of a tornado as it can leave a path of devastation in its wake.


Is it true that if you stand in the eye of a tornado it won't hurt you?

No. Although the eye of a tornado is calm, you have to get through the extreme winds of the core to get in and out. The eye of a tornado is small enough that unless the tornado is large and slow-moving, you will not be in the eye for more than a few seconds.


Is a tornado a density dependent factor?

No, a tornado is not a density dependent factor. Density dependent factors are biotic factors that influence population size based on population density, while tornadoes are weather phenomena that are not influenced by population density.


How is wind speed determined in a tornado?

Wind speed in a tornado is usually estimated using the damage caused by the tornado's winds and the Fujita scale, which categorizes tornadoes based on their intensity. Meteorologists may also use Doppler radar data to estimate wind speeds within a tornado. Direct measurement of wind speed in a tornado is rare due to the dangerous and unpredictable nature of tornadoes.


In a tornado what is most likely to happen?

During a tornado, strong winds can cause significant damage to buildings, vehicles, and infrastructure. Flying debris is also a major hazard, which can result in injuries or fatalities. Tornadoes can rapidly change direction and intensity, making them unpredictable and potentially dangerous.
