Nature
is beautiful. Nature can be
dreadful, too. A
tornado
leaves the dreadful signature of nature on earth. It
is one of the most
violent
storms in nature.Its
devastating effects have been proven many times - but
it
remained an
unsolved mystery to us for a long time.
In
the last 30/40 years,
advances
have been made towards
the understanding of the formation,
structure
and dynamics of tornadic storms.
This
knowledge helped in
making better
predictions, developing
better means for protections and
taking steps in
mitigation of
hazards.
In
this project I
have tried to give a brief overview on what a tornado is, how
do tornadoes form, the
scale that is commonly used to express the
destructive capability of toradoes.
