The force of a tornado comes form a turning, rising mass of air in a thunderstorm called a mesocyclone. Sometimes a downward-moving wind called a downdraft can wrap around the mesocyclone and make it narrower, which causes it to spin faster.

Where does the force from a tornado come from?

The power of a tornado comes from the thunderstorm that produces it. A thunderstorm is powered by the energy that water vapor releases when it condenses. Differences in wind speed and direction wind altitude, a condition called wind shear, sets these storms rotating. This rotation can then tighten and intensify to form a tornado.
