SURVIVING TORNADOES

The tornado is a column of air that rotates at a great speed. It often begin as supercell thunderstorms.

Supercell thunderstorms develop when warm, moist air rises to meet colder, dry air which is moving in a different direction.

Scientists called meteorologists use radar to track thunderstorm activity. They try to work out when a tornado will happen so that can warm people before the tornado strikes.

The tornadoes can occur at any time or anywhere, and often with little or no waning.

Meteorologists and people who study storms, such as Doug Dokken, suggest that everyone should be alert to the weather. If they have greenish black, large hailstones, a continuous rumbling or giant, low lying clouds.
