TORNADO


Is a violent, dangerous, rotating column of air which is in contact with both the surface of the earth and a cumulonimbus cloud or, in rare cases, the base of a cumulus cloud. Tornadoes come in many sizes but are typically in the form of a visible condensation funnel, whose narrow end touches the earth and is often encircled by a cloud of debris and dust.



At first, the funnel of the tornado is a funnel cloud, only consists of water droplets on condensation, which rise in the base of the cloud and mother down to the surface. After touching the ground, the vortex scouring powder and abundant hopes that because the air flow upward through the funnel go up and will ensure a curtain of dirt. As the tornado, and because of the friction between air molecules and dust in the walls that form the eye of the tornado usually occurs shock, leading to the appearance of cracks, lightning and lightning.



Finally, with all the debris carried along the funnel, the vortex of the tornado could not keep pace and are lagging behind, separating from the point where it joins with the mother cloud (sometimes drops slightly is wound around the cone) until breakage occurs, when the sleeve and is integrated into the cumulonimbus, the tornado disappeared. Also, the rupture of the funnel can also result from the inability to follow the tornado engulfing air due to the massive presence of the debris bears, but this does not change its dramatic denouement.
