If they had lower speed winds, - then they wouldn't be called a 'tornado'.

Tornadoes have high wind speed because of the differences in air pressure, wind shear, and rotating winds inside the thunderstorm. The wind shear tips over the rotating winds and you have a tornado. The tighter the rotating winds inside the thunderstorm the faster the wind speed of the tornado.

The wind speeds are caused by extreme differences in air pressure between the hot air that was there and the cold air coming in with the front. The rotation is due to the rotation of the earth (they spin the other way in the southern hemisphere).

i'm sorry that i'm able to't locate the reference by using fact the account is hilarious. the actual question is, what binds this column at the same time? The final I heard grew to become into electrostatic forces--an electric powered vortex. The account grew to become right into a case of a static administration business enterprise pronounced as to a business enterprise that had problems unreeling/rewinding plastic action picture. The action picture grew to become into somewhat extensive; went up, during and down; and made a tunnel you ought to stroll by way of. that they had issues of issues flying onto the plastic and sticking. Straw, bugs--those are expected. no longer birds. It grew to become into worst interior the early morning hours, once you ought to stroll into the tunnel and experience the end result. First, your hair might stand on end. on the middle of the tunnel, you may end. no longer merely ought to you stroll not greater, you had to peel your self off an invisible wall with a view to returned out. The plant supervisor pronounced that in the event that they could no longer restoration it, they ought to sell tickets. i don't comprehend what rigidity fuels tornadoes, yet this (electric powered vortex) must be the binding rigidity mandatory to create a concentrated column of severe velocity air. i did no longer have the persistence to delve into the maths in touch.

The updraft is so strong that satellites 150 miles up have measured an increase in atmosphere up there.

Hi. Technically, due to the conservation of angular momentum.

If it didn't have high windspeeds, it wouldn;t be classified as a tornado
