Damage to property hit by a tornado results both from these winds and from the extremely reduced pressure in the center of the funnel, which causes structures to explode when they are not sufficiently ventilated to adjust rapidly to the pressure difference. ...

• There was an additional unverified report of a third funnel or possible tornado near the city of East Palo Alto. ...
• The Sunnyvale tornado was well documented with both video and still images. ... 2) shows that this tornado was anticyclonic. ... Witness reports suggest that the tornado was multiple vortex and damage surveys determined that its path length was about 2 km. Video and radar evidence of the Los Altos tornado show that this was the second anticyclonic tornado produced by the same parent thunderstorm. This tornado had a path length of around 1 km and produced an injury as it moved through the campus of Los Altos High School.
• Sunnyvale tornado. ...
• Unusual photograph shot from directly underneath the Sunnyvale tornado. ...
• The radar evidence suggests that the Sunnyvale F2 tornado did not originate from the traditional "supercell cascade1" process (as outlined in Wicker and Wilhelmson 1993 ). We speculate that the first tornado was non-supercellular and related to the interaction of the thunderstorm with a surface boundary (see Markowski et al. ... However, the evolution of the radar signatures associated with the Los Altos tornado suggests that it may have been supercellular.
• However, no case study of an anticyclonic tornado in association with an anticyclonic supercell has yet appeared in the reviewed literature.
• 1The "supercell cascade" leading to tornadogenesis is a conceptual model that starts with the development of the midlevel mesocyclone, advection of precipitation by the mesocyclone around the updraft area, development of a rear flank downdraft (RFD) simultaneous with the development of the mesocyclone at lower levels, and interaction of the RFD with the low-level shear to produce the low-level tornado cyclone and, eventually, the tornado.
• This is the first study which provides Doppler radar documentation of the rare combination of an anticyclonic tornado associated with an anticyclonic supercell. ...
• This also suggests that the supercell would not be tornadic or, at least, that the traditional "supercell cascade" to tornado genesis would not be expected to occur for this case, since the strongest mesocyclones and mesoanticyclones tend to occur with curved hodographs (Bluestein, 1993, p. ...

• Tornado Safety.
• New technology has greatly improved warning systems, so that scientists now can see wind movement inside a cloud, making it possible to alert the public to possible tornadic activity before the tornado is ever visible. Although this additional lead-time makes tornado survival more likely, during bad weather you always should be alert and tune in for up-to-date weather information. If a tornado strikes, there is no substitute for well-made plans for taking emergency shelter, whether at home, work, or school. Tornado Statistics.

• Anecdotes include the stories of a horse that was blown two miles by a tornado and set down safely and of a man whose house was lifted into the air by a tornado without cracking a timber. This incident reportedly happened so gently that when he stepped out, unaware that his house was 25 feet in the air in the tornado, he dropped to the ground and seriously injured himself. Undoubtedly many of these curiosities can be explained away as exaggerations or outright hoaxes, but many also reflect the very real strangeness and capriciousness of a tornado's violent winds. ...

• In 1920, an Illinois tornado lifted a freight car, packed with 1,500 pounds of cargo, 40 feet into the air and deposited it into the side of a train station.
