63. Tornado Alley Maps And Information

    Extractions: Many arguments over what states are in tornado alley take place, so to be fair qualify what criteria you are using in determining tornado alley. In 2004 people in Illinois were at greater risk than most of the areas people think of as tornado alley. If you were to be exact about tornado alley, it would really be made up of hundreds of little strips, and never one large alley. Tornado alley maps are all made up of a general area from data taken over a long period of time. Tornado alley should be thought of on a more yearly basis also, since weather patterns can change, making some states harder hit one year versus others, like Illinois in 1925, 1974 and 2004. Some people have asked if tornadoes appear everywhere in tornado alley. The fact is on all tornado alley maps there are areas that have never had a tornado hit there. Remember, not every city in tornado alley has been struck by a tornado while others have had many tornadoes hit them.

64. What Is A Tornado?
    The most widelyaccepted definition of a tornado can be found in, among other sources, the Glossary of Meteorology (Huschke 1959)

    Extractions: This essay has not been reviewed by the scientific community and, therefore, can be said to be represent nothing more than a collection of my opinions. It certainly does not have (and I have not sought) the imprimatur of anyone in my official chain of command, and doesn't represent the position of NSSL. My intent in making these opinions available is to discuss some issues and perhaps to stimulate discussion and thought at the same time. Therefore, feedback is welcomed: you can e-mail me at: cdoswell@hoth.gcn.ou.edu Last update: 01 October 2001 What's new : Accounted for the revised Glossary definitions of tornado and waterspout, plus a few minor changes. The most widely-accepted definition of a tornado can be found in, among other sources, the Glossary of Meteorology (Huschke 1959): Tornado A violently rotating column of air, pendant from a cumulonimbus cloud, and nearly always observable as a "funnel cloud" or tuba Curiously, this definition says nothing about that rotating column being in contact with the surface. Perhaps the next edition of the Glossary will correct this oversight.

Their winds may top 250 miles (400 kilometers) an hour and can clear-cut a pathway a mile (1.6 kilometers) wide and 50 miles (80 kilometers) long. Photograph by Carsten Peter Tornadoes are vertical funnels of rapidly spinning air. Their winds may top 250 miles (400 kilometers) an hour and can clear-cut a pathway a mile (1.6 kilometers) wide and 50 miles (80 kilometers) long. Twisters are born in thunderstorms and are often accompanied by hail. Giant, persistent thunderstorms called supercells spawn the most destructive tornadoes. These violent storms occur around the world, but the United States is a major hotspot with about 1,000 tornadoes every year. “Tornado Alley,” a region that includes eastern South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, northern Texas, and eastern Colorado, is home to the most powerful and destructive of these storms. U.S. tornadoes cause 80 deaths and more than 1,500 injuries per year. A tornado forms when changes in wind speed and direction create a horizontal spinning effect within a storm cell. This effect is then tipped vertical by rising air moving up through the thunderclouds.

    Extractions: Real Name: Alan Caddy Birth Date: February 2nd 1940 Birth Place: London George Bellamy October 8th 1941 Sunderland Heinz Burt July 24th 1942 Germany Roger Jackson (Lavern) November 11th 1938 Kidderminster Clem Cattini August 28th 1939 London While many critics and biographers claim that the Tornados success was entirely due to the recording skills of Joe Meek, it is beyond doubt that the Tornados were an unusually competent group of young musicians. This quality combo had been used as backing musicians, most notably for Billy Fury, before Joe Meek turned them into one of the UK's most famous instrumental outfits. They will be remembered by most people- even Margaret Thatcher brought them to mind when asked about her favourite Pop tune- for 'Telstar'. This was a tune composed by Meek with help from his songwriting partner Geoff Goddard, and produced by Meek at his now famous studio in Holloway Road, London. It was an amazing piece of work at the time and its unique ethereal quality sent it to #1 in the UK very quickly. On its subsequent release in the USA it became the first UK produced #1 on that side of the Atlantic. The EP illustrated here (DFE8510) was the Tornados' first release on that format and was put out at a time when the group were at the peak of their mastery. Unusually for the time, it contained none of their singles releases and is therefore a welcome addition to the 45rpm collections of fans wanting 'new' material. Their second EP release came just a few weeks later- with the inevitable title, "Telstar".
