is a
violently rotating

TORNADO
(BUHAWI)
- a powerful, short-lived weather
disturbance - almost always associated with
lightning, thunder, dense clouds,
heavy rain or hail, and fast,
roaring winds.
- almost always associated with
Thunderstorm
A cumulus cloud becomes
very large, where the water
therein becomes large and
heavy, and raindrops begin
to fall through the cloud
when the rising air can no
longer hold them up.
MATURE
STAGE
Where the sun heats the
Earth’s surface during the day
and warms the air around it.
CUMULUS STAGE
After 30 minutes, thunderstorm
begins to dissipate (disapper),
this occurs when the
downdrafts in the cloud begins
to dominate over the updraft.
Since warm moist air can no
longer rise, cloud droplets can
no longer form.
DISSIPATING
STAGE
is the technical
name for ordinary
flooding that
occurs in inland
areas, hundreds of
miles from the
coast.
Inland Flooding
caused by heavy
precipitation in a short
period of time, usually
less than 6 hours.
- caused by heavy rain
or the sudden release
of water over a short
period of time.
Flash Floods
occurs when water
levels in rivers, lakes,
and streams rise and
overflow onto the
surrounding banks,
shores, and
neighboring land.
