What type of storm is characterized by a circulation cell?
wrong, the real answer to this question is tornado
What is the inside of tornado called?
The main part of the circulation of a tornado when the strongest winds occur is called the core.
Does it rain inside a rain-wrapped tornado?
Yes. If a tornado is rain wrapped rain can be drawn into the circulation.
Is a cyclone a tornado?
No. While a tornado and a cyclone have a number of things in common, they are two different things. A tornado is a small-scale circulation that is dependent on a parent storm cell. A cyclone is a large-scale circulation that is its own independent weather system.
When a tornado gets stronger what forms?
As a tornado intensifies it may develop a series of smaller vorticies within the main circulation.
What makes tornado winds blow?
Pressure decreases sharply, reaching its lowest at the center of the tornado. This pulls air toward the center of the tornado and then drawn into the tornado's updraft. The tornado spins as it originates from a larger circulation called a mesocyclone.
What is the wind inside a tornado called?
There is no specific term for the winds in a tornado, though tornadoes are recorded separately from other wind events. The area where the winds are spinning may be referred to as the circulation, though this term can apply to other wind vorticies as well.
What type of storms characterized by a circulation cell?

When an eye of a tornado comes back more severe than the general tornado what is that called?
When the eye of a tornado becomes more intense and destructive than the larger tornado, it is known as a "tornado within a tornado" or a "satellite tornado." This phenomenon occurs when a smaller, more powerful vortex forms within the main tornado circulation.
When does a tornado actually become a tornado?
A tornado is officially confirmed when a rotating column of air reaches the ground and makes contact with the surface. This contact creates the characteristic funnel cloud shape that is associated with tornadoes.
What weather event is characterized by circulation consisting of strong up and down movements?
tornado
How tall can the funnel of a tornado get?
The funnel of a tornado always connects to cloud base and typically all the way to the ground (the circulation of a tornado can reach the ground even if the funnel does not). Cloud base height is variable but in a tornado supercell is usually about 3000 feet to a mile above the ground. The circulation of the tornado usually goes a great distance above cloud base and can reach heights of more than 4 miles.
