Tornadoes occur when high pressure systems(Hot air) meet with low pressure systems(Cool or cold air). The hot and cold air chase each other around, trying to balance the two systems out, thus causing the dangerous and destructive whirlwinds we call Tornadoes! Tornadoes have done damage to many homes and cities, sometimes wiping cities completely off the map! They can be very dangerous, however some people actually FOLLOW these powerful storms! They are called storm chasers, and what they do is find the storms and collect data about them so we can better understand it. Tornadoes are a powerful, dangerous, destructive demonstration of the awesome power of nature.
