No. Tornadoes descend from very large parent thunderstorms. If you were to try to see a tornado from space the parent thunderstorm would block it from view. Additionally, many tornadoes are very brief, too brief to orient a satellite.

How can you see a tornado on satellite image?

You can't. Tornadoes descend from thunderstorms, and so cannot be seen from above. You can, however, see the thunderstorms in a satellite image. See the link below for a satellite time lapse of storms tha produce tornadoes.


What do tornadoes look like from space?

Tornadoes themselves cannot be seen from space because they are blocked from above by the thunderstorms that produce them. The link below shows a storm satellite of a storm system that was producing tornadoes at the time the picture was taken. The tornadoes themselves formed under the storms that are seen as the right-hand branch of the spiral-shaped system. Again, what you are seeing is the storm that produced the tornadoes, not the tornadoes themselves. At this resolution individual tornadoes would be too small to see anyway.


Can tornadoes create other tornadoes?

Yes, some strong tornadoes create brief satellite tornadoes that circle the main funnel.


How many tornadoes come out of one?

Usually one tornado does not result in other tornadoes. Some strong tornadoes can produce a satellite tornadoes that orbit them, but this is not very common.


Can tornadoes be seen from a satellite?

Tornadoes themselves are typically too small for satellites to directly observe. However, the atmospheric conditions that can lead to tornado formation, such as severe thunderstorms and rotating cloud patterns, are often visible from satellites. Meteorologists use satellite imagery in combination with ground-based observations to track and monitor the potential development of tornadoes.


Is it true that tornadoes have been seen?

Of course tornadoes have been seen. They're not invisible. in fact, they're huge. You can see videos of tornadoes if you do a YouTube search.


What are Small tornadoes around the main tornado?

Smaller tornadoes near a larger tornadoes are often called satellite tornadoes. Smaller vortices within a tornado are called subvorticies or suction vorticies.

Yes. Although not as common as in Tornado Alley, tornadoes are fairly common in Ohio. The state has even seen several F5 tornadoes.


What other storm can a tornado cause?

A tornado cannot cause another type of storm, though some strong tornadoes will spawn smaller satellite tornadoes that "orbit" the main vortex.
