A Tornado basically looks like a grey cone, but it moves on it's "tip". On top of the tornado, there is usually dark grey clouds. Some tornado's can be skinny and some can be fat. It is usually very, very, very windy when your are somewhere close to the tornado. There may be rain when a tornado is close to your area since tornado's are formed by hot and cold air (ithink..).

How do you know how strong a tornado is?

Tornado strength is typically measured using the Enhanced Fujita (EF) scale, which ranges from EF0 (weakest) to EF5 (strongest) based on damage caused. Observations made by trained storm spotters, meteorologists, and damage surveys help determine the tornado's intensity. Advanced technology like Doppler radar and photogrammetry also aid in assessing a tornado's strength.


Is there lightning during a tornado?

There can be, but it is not a requirement for one. Search google for tornado lightning and look through the images to see.


Does the current of a tornado go up or down?

The current of a tornado typically flows in an upward direction, carrying debris and causing damages like roof uplift and structural collapse.


How does a vacuum cleaner simulate a tornado How is it like a real tornado?

A vacuum cleaner simulates a tornado by creating a spinning vortex that sucks in debris and dirt. Similar to a real tornado, the swirling motion creates a low-pressure system that pulls objects toward the center. The intense suction power of a vacuum cleaner resembles the strong winds in a tornado that pick up and carry objects.


What might you see feel and hear if you were wathching a tornado take place?

If you were watching a tornado out would most likely see a rotating cloud cloud, wider at the top than the bottom extending toward the ground from a thunderstorm. The clouds around this will be rotating as well. as the ground you may see a swirl of dust and debris. You would likely hear the wind blowing, perhaps rain falling, and the occasional crash of thunder. You may even hear the roar of the tornado itself, which has been described as sounding light a freight train or jet engine. If you were outside you would likely feel the wind blowing and the rain falling. If the tornado were dangerously close, you might feel you ears pop from the low pressure.

What is the usual shape of a tornado?

Tornadoes come in different shapes, and the shape changes during the life of the tornado. Some tornadoes are like thin tubes or ropes, some look like large wedges. If it is wrapped in rain, or there isn't enough light, it can be hard to see a tornado. Sometimes clouds may look like a tornado but aren't, so looking for other clues like rotation is important.


Why do tornadoes look like spaghetti?

It is rather unusual for a tornado to look like spaghetti. If a tornado does take on such an appearance it most likely means the tornado is dissipating or "roping out." It is believed that this occurs when cold air chokes of the warm air that feeds the mesocyclone, the rotating updraft that drives the tornado. When this happens the tornado begins to shrink and weaken. Winds within the parent storm can somtimes cause a tornado at this stage to bend into unusual shapes.
