Tornadoes

Absolutely yes. In 2008 an EF4 tornado hit the town of Hautmont.

In 1967 a tornado outbreak hit France,Belgium and Netherlands producing an F5 tornado in Palluel and an F4 tornado in Pommereuil with a width of 2.5 km (1.6 mi).

On June 3, 1902 an F3/F4 tornado hit Javaugues reaching a width of 3 km (1.9 mi). (The largest on record in Europe) and finally in 1845 an F5 tornado hit the town of Montville, the strongest on record in Europe.

In addition to these, weak tornadoes occur fairly regularly.

The Fujita Scale is used to rate the intensity of a tornado by examining the damage caused by the tornado after it has passed over a man-made structure. These range from F0 (Gale Tornado) with minor roof and tree damage, to F5 (Incredible Tornado) with homes wiped clean of their foundations.

207 tornadoes in 24 hours, recorded on April 27, 2011. which shattered the previous record of 148 set on April 3-4 1974. Of these tornadoes 4 were rated EF5, and 11 were rated EF4, ranking it second in number of F5/EF5 tornadoes and third in number of violent tornadoes.

Tornadoes are not given names as hurricanes are.

Some are referred to by where they hit where they hit, though.

However, there were over 1200 tornadoes in the U.S. in 2010. It would be impossible to list them all.

Some of the most significant tornadoes of 2010 include the Yazoo City, Missippi tornado of April 24, the Millbury, Ohio tornado of June 5, the Pozo del Tigre, Argentina tornado of October 21, and the Cincinnati, Arkansas tornado of December 31.

Yes. There have been several tornadoes in the Cleveland Metro area. Most notably it was at the end of the damage path of a deadly and very long-tracked F4 tornado that tore a swath 118 miles long on June 8, 1953.

A F4 tornado has a maximum speed of 260mph (418 kph). However it should be noted that the wind estimates of the original Fujita scale, which were meant to correlate with damage levels, have been found to be inaccurate. on the new Enhance Fujita scale the top estimated wind speed for an EF4 tornado is 200 mph.

A tornado earns an F1 or EF1 rating if it causes moderate damage. This may include badly damaged roofs on houses, broken windows, snapped trees, and trailers overturned or partially destroyed.

Although Dallas has had tornadoes in the past the "super tornado" that was depicted as hitting the city was a purely hypothetical event meant to illustrate a worst-case scenario. It never really happened. In the past 60 years the strongest tornado to hit Dallas was an F3.

Both are, but it is probably more likely with a tornado.

On May 03, 1999a series of tornados hit the suburbs of Oklahoma City. Now, this is not that unusual for Oklahoma except that one of the tornados resulted in a recorded wind speed of 318 MPH or 509 KM/H, the world's fastest tornado ever recorded. The tornado ranked F-5 on the 0 to 6 Fujita scale, just 1 MPH short of being classified a F-6, a feat that has not been accomplished to this day.

A tornado can pick up the water and scatter it around the landscape, but the water molecules themselves are still water. This is generally not a significant effect, though, as the water picked up rarely constitutes more than a fine spray. In some cases debris may be thrown into lakes and streams. Overall, tornadoes generally do not significantly affect water systems.

It is estimated at 205 mph.

If you have a basement that would be your best bet. Or find a small closet with no windows or around any window. Some homes have a closet underneath the stairs and that would be your best bet if you home lacks a basement.

Yes. A torando can hit anywhere, although Philadelphia is not a more likely city to get hit. The states/cities that get the most tornadoes are in Toranado Alley. (Most of the Midwest states)!

MANY cities are in tornado alley but the following states are in tornado alley: Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, & Ohio. Any state can get a tornado any time of the year but these states are the most prone areas.

Tornado Alley is locate in the central part of the United States extending from Texas to South Dakota and Iowa and covering small portions of a few other states.

Tornado Alley gets its name from the fact that it sees more tornadoes than any other part of the world. The tornadoes there also tend to be stronger than elsewhere.

The upper limit of tornado is believed to be a little over 300 mph. This is not known for sure, however as the internal dynamics of tornadoes are not well understood and opportunities to study such the most violent tornadoes are very rare.

Tornadoes don't have a particularly significant influence. When tornadoes remove vegetation it may increase runoff and erosion near rives, increasing the amount of water and sediment that enters the river, but this is probably a small contribution. Tornadoes that cross rivers may suck unfortunate fish and other aquatic animals into the air as well. A tornado in Minnesota in 1939 was reported to have momentarily sucked the Mississippi river dry. This, however, was likely an exaggeration.

Blow some branches off older trees. Rip shingles off houses if they are not held down good. (Most shingles should be ok.) Blow down tall vegetation. If soil is saturated with water, it can blow down entire trees.

Blow over unloaded semi trailers. Blow over small metal buildings that aren't fastened down. Overturn picnic tables.

In general, Idaho is at very low risk for tornadoes Boise, ID , in particular, had their largest tornado in 1956, it is considered a low risk area for tornadoes..

Yes. Tornadoes are not uncommon in southern Brazil. Tornadoes at least as strong as F3 have been recorded in Brazil.

There are some impact. One is the rain shadow effect. Tornadoes are spawned by thunderstorms, which require moisture. The area downwind of a mountain range tends to be dry, which often makes severe thunderstorms and thus tornadoes less common. In rugged terrain, mountains can inhibit thunderstorms from organizing, which also reduced the likelihood of tornadoes.

Although both types of storm system revolve, the tornado revolves extremely fast, so is known as a 'twister'.

It is impossible to make long-term predictions about where one when a tornado will strike.
