Goods And Moods Got Twirled In A Mini Tornado
These people happily enjoyed the market day, not even imagining what could possibly twirl it around. And twirl it did. They were walking around the local market in Guardamar, Alicante, Spain, on a clear sunny afternoon when without any warning they were hit by this mini tornado. It only lasted about four minutes but caused loads of clothes and equipment to be pulled high into the air. No one was injured but everything was covered in dust. Damage, perhaps, was small, only the mood got spoiled.
Tornados are, indeed, a very curious and rather rare phenomenon of nature. They are vortex columns several hundred meters high, by a diameter of only a few tens of meters, even though giant tornadoes can reach a diameter of 1.5-3 km. It occurs as a result of the difference in atmospheric pressure between the upper and lower layers of the atmosphere. The air in this column rotates with great speed, creating a zone of low pressure around it, which "drags" into itself everything that gets in its way. This is how trees, people, cars and even, sometimes, commodity trains can be taken off in the air.
Tornadoes occur usually in summer in hot weather with thunderclouds: when the ground or water below is very hot, and the air above is very air, a cold air funnel begins to form stretching from the thunderous cumulus all the way down to the ground. This funnel is very similar to the elephant's trunk and this is why they say “the trunk of the tornado”. The tornado rushes and twists with the same speed as the cumulus cloud above moves.
