MORE about tornado alley
  • These states are vulnerable because they
    experience very unstable atmospheric conditions
    that can lead to development of super cell
    thunder storms.T-cells are very important to
    tornadoes because they take wind shear and turn
    it into a funnel. This funnel touches down to the
    ground when t-storms hits.

Safety tips
  • Check and watch weather and weather channels. If
    you are at home go to a storm cellar. If you
    cant then go under heavy objects or underneath
    stairs. If you are at school follow the teacher
    out into the hall or a room with no windows
    nearby. If you are driving do not try to out-run
    a tornado. Stop the car and go into ditch.
