the impact of rising global temperatures
on tornadoes remains complicated. .
Tornadoes form when warm,
moist air near the ground
collides with cool, dry air above. .
How climate change impacts these
factors has yet to be fully understood.
It doesn’t mean that there’s not
a connection, it just means that
it’s a lot harder to pick out than
some other things might be, Harold Brooks, Senior research scientist at the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National
Severe Storms Laboratory, via 'The Independent'.
While there has been fewer days per year with tornadoes, the number of days with multiple tornadoes has increased over the last half century.
The number of tornadoes has increased
in the Mid-South around Memphis,
Tennessee, and the surrounding
area of a couple of hundred miles, Harold Brooks, Senior research scientist at the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National
Severe Storms Laboratory, via 'The Independent'.
In the same time period, there’s been
a decrease in tornadoes over the
High Plains from the Texas Panhandle
through Western Kansas, Harold Brooks, Senior research scientist at the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National
Severe Storms Laboratory, via 'The Independent'.
In January, a study was published that found
rising temperatures were likely to increase
the number of supercell storms in the eastern U.S.
'The Independent' reports that supercells
are intense thunderstorms that produce
damaging hail and powerful tornadoes
