| Comment | Ever technically, it might actually be a tornado.
I had to go googling it, but a tornado is defined as when a rotating column of air touches both the clouds and the ground at the same time. It doesn't specifically refer to a funnel cloud or "twister", a misunderstanding that we have Hollywood to blame for. If the wind column we are in right now is touching the ground and touching the sky, then yeah, it's actually a tornado. A weak one, probably just F0/T0, but still.
The more ye know. TIL. |
