How Tornadoes Form and How We Measure Them

Next Generation Science

This educational video explores the science behind weather patterns, specifically focusing on extreme weather events and the formation of tornadoes. Hosted from the "Lighthouse Lab," the presenter guides students from observing daily weather changes to understanding complex meteorological phenomena. The video uses clear animations to break down the physics of how tornadoes form when cool, dry air meets warm, moist air, and explains the resulting atmospheric instability.
