TORNADO
4.LANDSPOUT

5. WATERSPOUT
waterspouts tornado are the ones forming over water
and exhibiting similar patterns to the tornadoes
forming on land.
This type is not very common even if the tornadoes
forming on land and later entering water are included.

6. Gustnado
The word gustnado is a combination of 'gust front
tornado'
A gustnado is a short-lived whirl of dust and debris
lasting from a few seconds to minutes. These
tornadoes does not possess a condensation funnel
do not always connect the surface to the base of the
closest cloud base

7. MULTI-VORTEX TORNADO
A tornado is termed as multiple-vortex when it has more than
one vortex rotating around the main vortex. Here, the other
vortices rotate around the axes; the vortices themselves
rotate in the peripheral region of the eye of the tornado.

8. LAND SPOUT
 A landspout is similar to waterspout, only
differencebeingthat it is formed on land.
 These types of tornadoes are typically weaker
than traditional tornadoes, but can still cause
destruction because they can create strong
winds

9. TORNADO FACTS
1. Tornadoes may appear nearly transparent until dust and debris are
picked up or a cloud forms within the funnel.
2. The average tornado moves from southwest to northeast, but
tornadoes have been known to move in any direction.
3. The average forward speed is 30 mph but may vary from nearly
stationary to 70 mph.
4. The strongest tornadoes have rotating winds of more than 250 mph.
5. Tornadoes can accompany tropical storms and hurricanes as they
move onto land.

AREAS

11. TORNADOES ARE FOUND MOST
