What is the probability of a flipped coin landing on its side?
The probability of a coin landing head-side down is 0.5 The probability of landing head-side up is 0.5 Did you mean to ask the probability of it landing on its edge ?
What is the probability of a 28-year-old female bearing a baby with Down syndrome?
If you look at the link below, the probability of a 28 year old female having a baby with Down syndrome is a little less than 1 in 1000.
When the 25 skiers are sent down from the top of Big Bunny Slope they are sent one at a time. The probability that a random new skier in the group will fall at Big Bend is 0.3. What is the probability?
There is a limited length of question that can be asked. Your question is missing what probability it is you actually want. Please edit your question to include what you are wanting to know - if necessary abbreviate the details of the question to allow more length for the actual question, eg: 25 skiers are sent down a slope singly. the probability of each skier falling on the way is 0.3. What is the probability that...
The probability that both of two tossed coins will come down heads is?
1 chance in 4

What were the most recent tornadoes?
As of May 21, 2012 the most recent tornadoes were part of a small outbreak in Kansas on May 19, with another, unrelated tornado touching down on the same day.
Where did the greensburg tornado touch down at?
It first touched down near Protection, Kansas.
Did any tornado's touch down in Kansas in 1861?
Undoubtedly, yes. Kansas has tornadoes every year.
What do tornadoes form before touching the ground?
A funnel cloud is typically visible before a tornado touches down

There've been tornado warnings for the Front Range and eastern CO, but I haven't seen any reports of tornados touching down anywhere.
What is a good link to see a video of the tornado that hit Joplin Missouri on Sunday May 22 2011?

How many tornadoes have touched down in Leavenworth Kansas?

Does a tornado jump?
In a sense. Some tornadoes are only in intermittent contact with the ground, touching down and lifting multiple times.
What does it mean if a tornado touches down?
When a tornado touches down it means that it has reached the ground and can now cause damage. Prior to touching down a funnel cloud is usually visible, hanging fro the base of the thunderstorm. It does not qualify as a tornado until damaging winds reach ground level.
Can a tornado cause damage without touching the ground?
Yes and no. The funnel of a tornado does not have to reach the ground for damaging winds to occur at ground level. However, if those winds reach the ground then the tornado has touched down even if the funnel hasn't.
What does BTI stand for in weather forecasting?
The new patent-pending Baron Tornado Index (BTI) introduces ground-breaking technology for tornado detection. With the BTI, each Baron SCIT (Storm Cell Identification Track) features a ranking on a 1-10 scale, rating the likelihood of a tornado within that storm. The color of affected shear markers changes from yellow to orange, then red, as the probability grows higher. Built on patent-pending and proprietary algorithms integrating radar data with the highest-resolution mesoscale models available, the Baron Tornado Index provides an easy, one-glance diagnosis of a storm's tornadic potential. the bearing tornado indicator is the chance of a tornado forming and/or touching down
Does a tornado make contact with the ground?
Yes. If a tornadic vortex does not make contact with the ground it does not meet the defintion of a tornado, and is simply called a funnel cloud. If the violent circulation (not necessarily the visible funnel) reaches the ground it is considered a tornado.
