Double=A Since my great fear is tornadoes I'm thinking why are they so
powerful. When hurricanes blow my trees down "push" in windows etc it took a tornato to cause my room addition room to blow apart,from the inside out. My theory is hurricanes are a "push" force and tornadoes are a pull force(think about it) For its vortex size tornadoes have the most power. Because a vacuum is one of natures strongest atmosphere forces. You said in your post "soft ball size hail" That is the big clue where how a tornado works,and it goes like this. Swirling air from above creates a funnel,and on top 0f the very moist cloud is very cold air and this is shown to us as great balls of ice rain down. The ground the funnel touches is very hot,dusty and the air is dry. Heated ground air rushes up the tunnel so fast it creates a very strong vacuum. Air rushes up to the very cold cloud top,and like a vacuum cleaner takes every thing with it. Blow homes up and apart in its path. Left 18 wheelers up off the ground and drop them half a mile away. I've witness fish dropped a mile from the ocean by a water spout (Revere Beach Ma) Like to add this It was almost 12AM when the tornado cause a shed to fly across my back yard It was not as dark as it should have been,and there was like a dim glow What was the reason for this phosphorescent glow?.

Trebert A Google search turned up many reports of night tornadoes having a phosphorescent glow. I wonder if the phenomenon has ever been investigated? There are some things, such as ball lighting, that science still cannot explain. Double-A |
