what would happen if a tornado hit somthing that is stronger than the tornado itself?

Question

a have always wonder what wouldhappen if a tornado hit an obsticle stronger than itself, would it just die out? (eg . mini tornado and large wall)

Answer 1

If the obstacle is large enough (like a mountain) it may very well disrupt the circulation of the tornado enough to kill it. Tornadoes do not often occur in mountainous regions, at least partially for this reason. Similarly waterspouts often dissipate when they move over land and small dust devils may be destroyed by a person entering them. For large, powerful tornadoes I wouldn't count on any obstacle in the path between you and it saving you, though.

Answer 2

Yeah i think the tornado would be destroyed is something disrupted the airflow. Unfortunately, the only thing large enough to disrupt a tornado would be a nuclear bomb - rather impractical, as it would do more damage than to tornado ever could.

Answer 3

uhhhhh, the tornado would move past it ?
