🌪️ A tornado is like a big, spinning wind tunnel! Inside, there's lots of strong wind that goes round and round very fast. It can pick up things like leaves, dirt, and even toys if they're outside! 🌬️
But don't worry—tornadoes are far away and grown-ups keep us safe when they happen. Tornadoes are like nature's vacuum cleaners, but they're very loud and scary!
🌪️ A tornado is a powerful spinning column of air that stretches from a thunderstorm cloud down to the ground. Inside, there's super-fast wind (sometimes over 300 mph!) that swirls around like a giant mixer. It can carry dirt, rocks, tree branches, and even cars! 🚗💨
Tornadoes form when warm and cold air mix in a special way. Scientists study them to keep people safe. The very center of a tornado, called the 'eye,' is actually calm—but you'd never want to be near one!
🌪️ A tornado is a violently rotating column of air connecting a thunderstorm to the ground. Inside, winds can exceed 300 mph (480 km/h), creating extreme low pressure that acts like a giant vacuum. The tornado's core consists of:
Tornadoes form from supercell thunderstorms when wind shear creates rotation. The Fujita Scale measures their strength from F0 (weak) to F5 (incredibly destructive). Scientists use Doppler radar to study them and improve warnings.
