Tornadoes

No. No tornado stronger than F5 has ever been recorded.

May on averages experience the most tornadoes.

It is generally safer in an interior room as in a strong tornado the exterior walls are usually the first to go.

However, the absolute safest place in a tornado is a basement or cellar.

A basement with no windows and hide under a heavy and strong desk.

It depends on the shelter. Though most are safe for anything but an EF5 tornado, which is extremely rare.

Not as safe as other buildings as they often have large front windows.

If you in in such a store and a tornado is coming go to the back, to a bathroom or storage room if possible..

Living out your whole life in tornado alley, you still may or may not see a tornado in your life. The odds of being in a tornado are probably about 1/300. Over an entire life....maybe less.

Yes it is very likely. A tornado can touch down just about anywhere.

Bathroom is safe only if it is located in a basement, but otherwise, I'll strongly recommend a basement which is supposed to keep the tornadoes out, if you are in an area where tornadoes tend to come.

The last tornado to hit Pennsylvania was an EF0 in York on April 16, 2011. It damaged several businesses and snapped a few trees.

Of course they are.

While tornadoes are the deadliest form of severe weather in the U.S. on an annual basis, worldwide floods are responsible for hundreds, even thousands of deaths a year while tornadoes usually don't claim more than a few dozen.

- stay as low as you can.

- keep away from windows.

- keep away from pipes or electrical products.

- cover your face up to keep out the dust.

- get under a heavy object like a desk or table.

- and try to have as many walls as you can between you and the outside.

It hit Chile on 14 June, 2010 at 9:34 a.m.

If it's enough to be classified as a tornado, it will damage your house. Generally, winds in excess of 60 mph are considered sufficient to cause visible damage, though at this point it will be superficial unless a tree falls on ths house.

Depends entirely on how strong it is. Weak tornadoes could barely do any damage, maybe to the roof...EF-5 tornado could flatten it.

A basement or underground structure is best, but an interior room in a house with no basement will often work. If you're in a car, lie on the floor face-down and put your arms over your head.

Georgia averages about 29 tornadoes per year.

Yes. They often do.

Well first off you need to know that the tornado is going to hit your best bet is if there is a storm out side and its a pretty strong storm, you need to turn the TV on go to your local weather channel, And if you are in a tornado watch area you need to (if possable) go to your basement or out to your storm cellar. If you dont have niether of those you need to open all the windows in your house, (so you dont get cut or stabed by the glass breaking because of the force of the wind WILL make that happen) then you need to go to your bathroom get your kids in the tub and cover them with all the matresses and pillows you can find. Now if you and your spouce cant fit in the tub and dont want to leave your kids alone, one of you get in between the tub and toilet or if that not possable get ass many blankets, pillows, anything soft and thick to protect you. Lie down flat on the ground and cover up. make sure your able to hold on to the toilet or tub. That way if it is a very strong tornado you wont blow away.

Well a very simple question but that question requires a precise answer. The world would be very different. To some degree a tornado serves as an energy outlet for a thunderstorm. Without tornadoes, the storms that would otherwise produce them would have to release it some other way, possibly though stronger winds, larger hail, or by lasting longer.

There would be less damage to homes and property, though some areas might see houses built with less sturdy construction.

High air pressure aloft can increase wind shear, which is a key factor in tornado rotation. Wind shear is the change in wind direction and speed with height, and when it increases due to high pressure systems, it can enhance the rotational capabilities within a storm system and potentially lead to tornado formation.

Yes.

Tornadoes can vary greatly in size, but the smallest tornadoes typically have a diameter near 10 meters (33 feet) at the ground. These smaller tornadoes are often classified as EF0 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale.

Dust devils are more likely to form on hot, sunny days when the ground is dry and the air near the surface is rapidly heated. This causes the air to rise quickly, creating a spinning column of air that picks up dust and debris. Flat, open areas with minimal wind are also more conducive to dust devil formation.

Yes, there have been a lot of tornadoes in Delaware. Fortunately, none of the tornadoes got higher than F-3.
