Climate change is a long-term alteration in the statistical distribution of weather pattern over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. The world is currently experiencing drastic change in temperature. This change can be felt in the tropical climate areas where the weather is getting hotter and hotter every day. The change in global temperatures and precipitation over time is due to natural variability or to human activity. It is also caused by accumulation of greenhouse effects (Arrhenius

found in Tornado Alley‚ USA. What is a tornado: * A vortex (whirling mass of air)descends from well developed cumulonimbus cloud. * A tornado vortex is in contact with the cloud and the ground * Violent winds (100m per second) * Extreme pressure gradients (25mb per 100m) and air rushing from the high to low causes the spinning winds. (Hurricanes 20mb per 100km!!) * Diameter of funnel is rarely more then 200m Key conditions required for a tornado to form: * Moisture
