severe thunderstorms because stronger storms make it easier for tornados to form. During a supercell storm‚ characterized by powerful updrafts‚ warm‚ less heavy air begins to rise and meets colder and heavier air above it. Wind shears make tornadoes easier to form. A wind shear is when a warmer air collides with a colder air. Faster air begins to spin and roll over slower wind and beings to grow in size. Horizontal wind begins to spin like a cylinder. As more warm air rises‚ spinning air encounters
