Tornadoes

It is possible, but long term predictions for tornadoes are not possible. If a place is going to be hit, we will know a few minutes in advance.

Yes, though they tend not to be very strong.

No, a tornado is not considered geologic in nature. Tornadoes are atmospheric phenomena that result from weather patterns and conditions, such as thunderstorms and air masses interacting in specific ways to create rotation within a cloud. Geology, on the other hand, deals with the study of the Earth's materials, structures, processes, and history.

If you are in your home and there is a tornado on the ground, get to the lowest floor on your home and stay in a room where there are no windows, glass, or anything that can shatter. This room should be in the basement. If you don't have a basement, take shelter in the bathroom; most tornadoes can demolish the whole house but usually leave some parts of the home not destroyed. Take shelter in a bathtub or whatever is firm to the walls. Also, take whatever that can protect your head like some blankets or a few pillows. If you are driving a car, don't try to outrun the tornado. It is very dangerous because tornado acceleration forward can move up to 70 mph. Instead, get out of the car and lie flat in a ditch or the nearest shelter you can find like a nearby building. If you are in a crowded shopping mall, drop to the ground and cover you head to make as little as a target as possible. Remember to always be careful.

The lowest rating a tornado can receive is EF0.

In terms of damage severity that title would probably go to the Jarrell, Texas tornado of May 27, 1997. This F5 tornado essentially erased a portion of the Double Creek Estates subdivsion. The tornado destroyed everything; houses, trees, grass, streets, and driveways were all blown away and pulverized, leaving a field of mud. In some areas the tornado removed up to 18 inches of topsoil. The only indicator that there had been anything there were the concrete slabs that ones supported houses, and the discolored earth where roads once were. Of the 27 people in this area of complete destruction only one survived and an additional death occurred just outside of Jarrell. Although an F5 tornado can be expected the remove a houses from their foundations, no other tornado has been known to cause destruction this complete. See the related link below for pictures and more information.

Since the tornado did not hit a large population center, the actual amount of damage was limited, only a few dozen buildings were destroyed, though most of those that were got completely obliterated. Other tornadoes that were less intense, but still very violent,have hit larger developed areas and destroyed thousands of buildings amounting to a greater total cost.

Gravity is present in a tornado, however, for objects that are not too heavy the upward flow of air in a tornado can overpower gravity. Tornadoes are dependent on convection, which requires gravity, but tornadoes themselves are a thermodynamic rather than gravitational event.

Tornadoes can cause significant damage to the land by uprooting trees, destroying buildings, and displacing soil. They can also create new land formations, such as debris fields or dunes, through the deposition of materials carried by the tornado. Overall, tornadoes can alter the landscape by reshaping and reconfiguring the land.

As of this date the last recorded tornado in North Carolina was one of 3 EF0 tornadoes that occurred on October 1 in that state. The last of these tornadoes occurred at 6:22 pm eastern daylight time near the town of Boarderman in Columbus County. This short lived tornado traveled only 1/6 mile, knocking down a few trees and damaging the roofs of three sheds.

Yes. Tornadoes do occur in Cuba. Interestingly, it is believed that the first ever footage of a tornado was taken in Cuba.

The ICNUS, or International Conference on Networked and Ubiquitous Systems, is a platform for researchers, practitioners, and industry professionals to share advancements and innovations in networked and ubiquitous computing. It typically features presentations, workshops, and discussions focusing on emerging technologies, applications, and challenges within this field. The conference aims to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange among participants to drive the evolution of networked systems.

Tornadoes do not have a significant effect on land forms. Tornadoes can destroy vegetation and man-made structures but the ground itself is usually not affected beyond trees being uprooted. However, in extreme cases a very violent tornado may strip away a foot or so of soil along the most intense portions of the damage path.

Technically, you'd be hard pressed to find a places that doesn't get tornadoes. They occur just about everywhere. However, even in very tornado-prone areas such as Tornado Alley, your chances of being hit by a tornado are rather small. All places that you could live have disadvantages and dangers. These could include a high incidence of natural disasters such as tornadoes or earthquakes, or they could be man-made dangers such as pollution or violent crime.

In an average year in the U.S. tornadoes kill about 60 people. By contrast between 400 and 500 die each year on icy roads and about 17,000 are murdered.

Several tornadoes struck the Dallas/Fort Worth area on April 3, 2012.

it is that it is tornado alley it make a strong storm with ice and then ice comes then tornado

A tornado is categorized as weather related geologic in nature because it is a natural weather phenomenon caused by atmospheric conditions. Tornadoes are not caused by humans, so they do not fall under the category of being human-induced.

Data for tornadoes so far in 2012 is not yet finalized. However, based on archived data from 2000-2011 and preliminary data from 2012, Arkansas has had 579 recorded tornadoes so far in the years 2000-2012.

It varies widley. Some tornadoes cause no property damage and so there is no cost of repair. In many cases costs are in the tens of thousands to millions of dollars. In most destructive tornadoes costs have been in the billions.

It is impossible to make long term predictions of whether or when a specific location will have a tornado. When we do determine that a town or city is going to be hit, the time to the tornado's impact is measured in minutes.

The Tri-state tornado of 1925 was the worst tornado in U.S. history. Over the course of 3 hours and 29 minutes the tornado traveled 219 miles across 3 states (Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana) killing 695 people, injuring over, 2000, and destroying more than 15,000 homes. More than 19 communities were impacted, a few of which were completely destroyed. The Two of Murphysboro, Illinois where 234 people were killed, the highest number for a single U.S. town.

it makes the buildings and stuff on land get destroyed it sucks up dirt and other earth materials and makes hills out of the materials it effects people because their stuff is gone and they could have died or been hurt

Tornado damage is mostly the result of powerful winds. Tornadic winds can easily exceed 100 mph and have been recorded in excess of 300 mph. The force of such wind can damage if not destroy buildings and trees.

Tornadoes occur during thunderstorms that are most common in the later afternoon or early evening. Seasonal occurrences vary by region, but the highest numbers overall are in spring and early summer.

In terms of location, tornadoes usually occur in temperate or subtropical climates with the most tornado prone regions including the central U.S., Florida, Northern India, and South Africa.

None. There is no wasy of preventing tornadoes.
