eli5: what are the mechanics behind supercell and tornado generation?
In: 3
Oh.My.God. What model is it? 😍
First, the rain-free cloud base lowers as a rotating wall cloud. This lowering concentrates into a funnel cloud, which continues descending simultaneously as a circulation builds near the surface, kicking up dust and other debris. Finally, the visible funnel extends to the ground, and the tornado begins causing major damage.
