Air is transparent. Therefore the fundamental forming medium of a tornado will be invisible (transparent) it is only when the tornado incorporates water droplets (form the forming cloud) or debris form the ground that it becomes visible / opaque.
A liquid that does not absorb visible light appears transparent because it allows light to pass through without being absorbed or scattered, making it appear clear and see-through.
While it may appear that multiple tornadoes are merging into each other, it is more likely that they are separate tornadoes occurring in close proximity. Tornadoes can interact with each other, but they do not typically combine or merge into a single, larger tornado.
No, transparent objects do not absorb light. Instead, they allow light to pass through them without being scattered or absorbed, which is why they appear clear or see-through.
Window glass is transparent, which means that it allows light to pass through easily without distorting or scattering it. Translucent materials, on the other hand, allow some light to pass through but also scatter it, making objects on the other side appear blurred or fuzzy.
No, raw black diamonds are not transparent. They appear black due to numerous inclusions and impurities that scatter light, giving them their dark color. Transparency is associated with white or colorless diamonds.
Cumulus clouds don't so much appear in tornadoes. It is more accurate to say that tornadoes descend from cumulonimbus clouds.
There appear to be no records of any tornadoes stronger than F3 hitting Mustang.
Quartz can appear in transparent hexagonal crystals.
Tornadoes happen in both hemispheres.
Tornadoes do not always appear black. The apparent color depends on lighting conditions and how much and what color of soil is being lifted. Many tornadoes appear dark because of perspective: the are lit from behind and are essentially silhouetted against the light source. The same tornado may appear lighter if viewed from a different angle. The storms that spawn tornadoes have very thick clouds that often making conditions appear very dark. The clouds themselves may be black. Some tornadoes may be black as they lift large amounts of black soil into the air.
There do not appear to be any records of tornadoes hitting Greensboro. In any given year most towns will not be hit by a tornado.

Many tornadoes appear black because the lift dark colored soil or are view while backlit. It is actually quite common for a tornado to have a gray appearance.
Tornadoes can occur just about anywhere in the U.S. but are most common on the Great Plains and in Florida.
True
No part of Arizona is completely free of tornadoes, but they appear to be less common in the western part of the state.
Tornadoes typically move in a straight path, rather than following the elevation of the terrain. While tornadoes may appear to move uphill or downhill due to changes in the landscape, their movement is determined by the atmospheric conditions that created them.
