The biggest, most expensive, tech-heavy effort to understand how and why tornadoes form begins next month. Pulling together truck-mounted radar, UAVs, wind meters bolted to car roofs, webs of ...

Surprisingly, some experiments have shown that low-frequency infrasound, with a frequency range of 1 to 10 Hz, is produced during tornadogenesis—the birth of a tornado—and the course of its life.

As scientists, we are still very much in the early stages of learning about tornadogenesis, or tornado development. Trying to pinpoint exactly where and when a tornado will form is extremely ...

Maps of patterns of tornadogenesis, or the process by which a tornado forms, show that between 1951 and 1985, tornado formation peaked in northern Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas. Where tornadoes began ...

Penn State professors Paul Markowski and Yvette Richardson have an unusual job. They launch weather balloons into supercell thunderstorms. These rotating storms are what most commonly produce ...

Below is footage of what is called tornadogenesis – which is the formation or life cycle of a tornado. This was taken by Carson A. just southeast of Augusta, WI around 8 p.m. on Monday, April 28.

"We're trying to make high resolution simulations of super cell storms, or tornadoes," McGovern said. "What we get with the simulations are the fundamental variables of whatever our resolution is — we ...
