Do fire tornadoes exist?

Fire tornadoes are rare atmospheric tornado events. They are also referred to as "pyrogenetic tornadoes," which refers to the way in which they are formed, with a tornado-strength vortex much like a traditional tornado. More common than fire tornadoes, fire whirls are whirlwinds created by the heat of flames.

Can something exist and not exist at the same time?

Physical things can exist and not exist at the same time with the help of quantum mechanical uncertainty. All that can be is in the measure that it can be, and not the rest.

Are waterspouts real?

Tornadic waterspouts are tornadoes that form over water, or move from land to water. They have the same characteristics as a land tornado. They are associated with severe thunderstorms, and are often accompanied by high winds and seas, large hail, and frequent dangerous lightning. Then, what is a snownado? This is a very rare phenomenon that occurs when surface wind shear acts to generate a vortex over snow cover, resulting in a whirling column of snow particles being raised from the ground. It is sometimes referred to as a "snownado".

Subsequently, what is inside a tornado?

The region inside a tornado is called the "death zone," and is characterised by low temperatures and oxygen levels, making it difficult to breathe. Accordingly, do tornadoes have lightning? Tornadoes emit on the electromagnetic spectrum, with sferics and E-field effects detected. There are observed correlations between tornadoes and patterns of lightning. Tornadic storms do not contain more lightning than other storms and some tornadic cells never produce lightning at all.

Can smoke exist without fire?

Smoke occurs when there isn't enough oxygen to burn the fuel completely. Water and carbon dioxide are produced when everything is burned. Not everything is burned when incomplete combustion occurs.

And another question, why do tornadoes sound like a train?

Why do tornadoes sound like trains? Tornado survivors and witnesses often liken the sound of a tornado to that of a freight train-that is, the noise and vibrations of its wheels against the railroad track and ground. A tornado's vortex is made up of air that's rotating very rapidly. Can a tornado knock down a hotel? Hotels strive to make guests feel comfortable, safe and even pampered, but even the solid walls of a well-built hotel can succumb to damage in a violent tornado. Much of the damage of a storm comes from flying debris, so seeking a safe haven away from hotel windows should be your primary goal.
