Can an earthquake cause a tornado?
No, earthquakes and tornadoes are two separate natural phenomena caused by different processes. Earthquakes occur due to tectonic plate movements, while tornadoes are caused by strong thunderstorms and rotating air. The two events are not directly related to each other.
