Very unlikely due to the factors that are necessary to create tornados. It is very difficult to get the right mixtures of air and temperatures at those elevations. ...... however, nothing is impossible I supose.

Airliners commonly drift ok, although not that nicely. A accessible rule-of-thumb is 12:a million. for each a million foot of altitude lost, the airliner can drift ahead about 12 ft. plane that function over the sea are required to be qualified lower than a software called ETOPS (prolonged Trans-oceanic Operations) the position the engines must have a shown music record of reliability, the plane isn't operated more advantageous than a particular distance from shore, and extra survival kit is carried on board. a factor-of-no-go back is very few extent the position if one engine fails, that's shorter in factor of time, to proceed to the different facet than to go back back to base. It varies relying on wind and altitude of direction. If a commercial jet is at 40 5,000 ft and occurs to have a twin, simultaneous, engine failure (truly not likely) they could probably drift about 540,000 ft. Thats about 102.27 miles. They drift quickly so it wouldnt take lengthy to conceal that distance, yet they might have the ability to drift it for a lengthy time period. even if, having 2 turbine engines fail at the same time is so truly uncommon i visit't imagine it taking position. the purely case in contemporary heritage is the A-three hundred the position the pilots by hazard pumped all their gas overboard and flamed both engines out. They then had to make a drift onto an airstrip ion the middle of the Atlantic. Airbus has on account that re-written their emergency checklists so pilots do not attempt this any extra. that is actual the tale the guy above my submit is concerning. the pilots were complete morons and pumped their gas into the sea. They not in any respect stopped to imagine about WHY they were burning a lot extra gas than anticipated, yet they were able to drift onto a runway and no individual become injured.

I don't know the elevations but Tennesse gets tornadoes frequently. Try typing "Tornadoes in Tennessee" and see what the elevations were. I'm sure you'll find a bunch of stories.

High Plateau regions can have tornadoes. They are very weak and do not last long. I lived in an area (only 6100ft) that had some weak tornadoes once. Very rare phenomenon.

No because of the Terrain holds only cold air, For it to be a tornado there has to be a mixture of hot & cold air

Are you about the clouds ? Anything is possible , check out the history of your area and see if anyone has ever reported seeing one , or if there has been one ....

probally but they wont stay touched down long.maybe only a few seconds...its to rocky and the land is up and down causing it to go back up every time it hits a vally.

You can have tornadoes when you have super cell thunderstorms.Simple as that...tom science

it`s possible but it`s more likely to happen on flat land like the plaines
