get inside the car kitty we need to
hurry up we need to get out of here
quickly
it's coming it's coming
what
the tornado
hey friends you two quickly take shelter
because in today's episode we are
entering the eye of the storm
that is
the tornado
zoom in
the weather has many sides sometimes
cool sometimes hot sometimes pleasant
and sometimes extreme creating
thunderstorms cyclones floods etc
and one of the most extreme
brutal
and potent forms of weather is a type of
a storm we call
tornadoes
a tornado which is also known as
twisters are rapidly rotating columns of
air that reach from a storm cloud to the
earth's surface and when tornadoes are
formed they are a brutal force to reckon
with that can tear apart everything that
comes on its way causing massive
destruction to the surroundings
it's because of this very nature of
tornadoes that scientists have shown a
keen interest in it but the formation of
a tornado is so complex that scientists
still don't completely understand it
as conditions that give rise to one
tornado
does not necessarily be responsible for
forming another one
but what we know so far is that a
tornado is formed under a powerful and
big thunderstorm called supercells
when cold dry air moving from one
direction meets warm moist air coming
from another direction it creates
instability in the atmosphere
and as the cold air is dense or heavier
it slides down under the warm air and
pushes it upwards very fast
the faster moving air begins to spin and
roll over the slower wind creating an
invisible horizontal spinning effect
like a cylinder in the lower atmosphere
as the winds continue to build up
stronger and more powerful warm air
forces the spinning winds vertically
upward causing an updraft
and with an increase in momentum and
speed the spinning winds create a vortex
now the wind has enough energy to fuel
itself and eventually keep going to form
a tornado
and when the pointed part of the tornado
touches the earth's surface from the
cloud it is often referred to as a
touchdown
and then it goes and does what it does
best
that is destroy everything along its
path
give your time
did you know the duration of tornadoes
and the distance they travel varies
most of the tornadoes last only less
than 10 minutes and travel around 5 to
10 kilometers before vanishing
but in some cases however they can last
several hours and cross distances over
150 kilometers
also the deadliest tornado ever recorded
was in bangladesh in 1989
as it sailed through the dhaka region of
the country
more than 20 villages were destroyed and
around 1
300 people were killed
it's question time
today's question is
what is the other name for a tornado

so
here are the winners of the previous
episode
remember my friends
tornadoes are nature's way of showing
anger and there is nothing we can do to
stop it
but if you ever come across one then
quickly run to a basement or get under a
sturdy piece of furniture like a table
and crouch down on your knees and
protect your head with your arms and
stay inside the house until it's safe to
come out
hope you enjoyed today's episode until
next time it's me dr binox zooming out
