Tornadoes

Tornadoes are among the most violent storms on earth due to the damage it can cause to people and buildings.

How tornadoes are caused?

the hot weather super heats the ground and it causes the heat to rise. When the hot are meets cold air that causes storm clouds. This can cause thunder, lightning and rain it can also cause an air explosion. That starts the wind turning. Then it forms into a funnel and below the storm clouds is a Tornadoes.

Hurricanes

Hurricanes are powerful storms and violent winds that form over water.

Hurricanes are a tropical storm that form in the Atlantic ocean with wind speeds of at least 119 km (74 miles) per hour.

It’s only when they move over land that their power can be seen much more clearly.

Hurricanes have 3 main parts, the calm eye in the center, the eye wall where the wind and rain are the strongest and then the rain bands which spins out from the center. That gives the storm it’s size.

Hurricanes with wind moving faster than race cars can tear down houses and lift up heavy vehicles often destroying everything in there path.
