How do tornadoes come about?
Its upper end is connected with thunderstorm clouds, its lower end is suspended in mid-air, and some directly extend to the ground or water surface, and move forward while rotating. In thunderstorm clouds, the air disturbance is very intense, and the temperature difference between the upper and lower parts is very large. On the ground, the temperature is more than 20 degrees Celsius. The higher the altitude, the lower the temperature. At the top of the cumulonimbus cloud at an altitude of more than 8 thousand meters, the temperature is as low as MINUS 30 degrees Celsius. The instability of the atmosphere produces a strong updraft, which makes the cold air flow above drop rapidly and the hot air below rise violently. When the updraft reaches high altitude, if it encounters strong horizontal wind, it will force the updraft to "upside down" (rotate downward). Due to the alternating disturbance at high altitude, it rotates and forms many small eddies. These small eddies gradually expand. When the developing vortex reaches the ground, the ground air pressure drops sharply and the ground wind speed rises sharply, forming a tornado.
