Earthquakes and tornadoes are two separate natural phenomena that do not typically occur simultaneously. Earthquakes are caused by movement of the Earth's tectonic plates, while tornadoes are violent columns of rotating air associated with severe thunderstorms. However, in rare cases, an intense earthquake could potentially trigger a landslide or other disturbance that may result in localized tornado-like activity.
For the most part, by that point it's too late to "do" anything. There are lots of preparations you can make before an earthquake, but once it starts it doesn't usually last long enough for you to do anything. Earthquakes can be thought of as more or less the exact opposite of tornadoes: in an earthquake, you should get outside if you can or at least in a doorway, whereas in a tornado outside is pretty much the last place you should be.
Yes. While most tornadoes are the result of other types of storm system, it is fairly common for a hurricane to spawn tornadoes.
Yes. It is possible, especially in the case of weak, short-lived tornadoes and tornadoes that occur far from any weather radar.
2012.
Yes. It is fairly common for hurricanes to produce tornadoes.
Tornadoes require a fairly specific set of conditions to develop. The factors have to come together in just the right way.
When the earth's techtonic plates come together at just the right angle and one goes slightly up it creates an earthquake
When two tornadoes converge, a phenomenon known as the Fujiwhara effect can occur. In this scenario, the tornadoes may begin to orbit each other or merge to form a larger, more powerful tornado. The outcome can be unpredictable and result in increased damage and danger.
No it does not come from tornadoes . :] .....
Japan lies in the earthquake zone where four plates come together. As the plates push against each other, they cause violent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Yes, multiple tornadoes can sometimes merge together to form a larger, more powerful tornado. This phenomenon is known as a tornado outbreak. However, it is relatively rare for this to occur.
earthquake, tornadoes, hurricanes
they are all bad earthquakes tornadoes and floods.
Tornadoes are possible in Haiti as it is in a hurricane prone region. Hurricanes can produce tornadoes. In recent times, though, tornadoes have been the least of Haiti's concerns. First it was struck by a devastating earthquake in January of 2010. A few months later a cholera outbreak started, which was made worse when Hurricane Tomas sideswiped the country. Fortunately, the outbreak was not as bad a many feared.
two plates come together to causing the ground to shake, buildings to collapse and people to die.
Nimbus clouds can be associated with severe weather, including tornadoes, but they do not directly cause tornadoes. Tornadoes form when conditions such as instability, wind shear, and a triggering mechanism come together in the right way. Nimbus clouds can be a sign of these conditions, but they are not the sole cause of tornadoes.
No, tornadoes are triggered by interactions of air currents, which are essentially unaffected by earthquakes.
