What should you do if you're under rubble after a tornado hits?
Call for help periodically if you can. Under such circumstances there will be search and rescue teams.
Why did the average number of tornado-related deaths in the US decline from previous years?
The warning system for tornadoes has improved, giving people a better chance to get to safety before a tornado hits.
What happens before a tornado strikes?
It varies but most often it stops raining a few minutes beforehand. A break in the clouds may be seen, a sign of a downdraft that helps the tornado form. A number of tornado survivors recall it being unusually quite just before the tornado hits.
What should you do with your animals if a tornado hits?
You probably won't have time to do much of anything since tornados move so fast. You should take cover and protect yourself, and do what you can for your animals afterward. You can't help your animals if the tornado kills you.
Would an F1 tornado kill you?
F1 tornadoes can kill, but they rarely do. So an F1 tornado is unlikely to kill you, but you should still take safety precautions to reduce your risk, especially since you can't tell how strong a tornado is before it hits.
What happenswhen a lightning bolt hits a raging tornado?
Nothing happens. The lightning will not affect the tornado.
When will be the next quiet tornado?
First of all, tornadoes are not quiet. It may be quiet before a tornado hits, but not in the tornado itself. Second, it is impossible to predict when or where the next tornado will hit.
What do you do when your mom hits you?
Children should call 911, but that's my opinion.
What page number is the saying you hope the tornado hits the moose in Hatchet?
The quote "I hope the tornado hit the moose" is from the book "Hatchet" by Gary Paulsen. However, the specific page number can vary depending on the edition or format of the book. It is generally found in Chapter 1 of the book.
What would happen if a tornado hits the United States?
Tornadoes are local events that form from within thunderstorms. The USA has a greater number of tornadoes than any other nation, primarily within an area called "tornado alley" that stretches across a large part of the Midwest. When a tornado hits in the United States, the weather service provides warnings so that people can get to shelters or underground.
What happens before the tornado hits the ground?
Before a tornado hits the ground, a rotating column of air forms in the storm cloud known as a funnel cloud. This funnel cloud extends towards the ground, and once it makes contact, the tornado is then officially considered to have touched down.
What do you call a tornado that hits snow?
It is still just a tornado. However, it would be quite unusual to have an actual tornado go through an area where there is snow on the ground, as such conditions would generally be be too cold for tornado formation. Sometimes, though, you can get small whirlwinds that usually result from wind interacting with trees, buildings, and terrain. These are not tornadoes, but harmless eddies. If they lift snow into the air they are somtimes called snow devils.
