Best Answer

When water (or any fluid) is stirred in a circular motion it will form a vortex or vortices. A vortex is a region in which the fluid flows in a circular motion around a vertical axis. Common examples are smoke rings, whirlpools - including those seen behind the oars of boats or hot drinks that have been stirred, water going down a plughole. Often the fluid forms more than one vortex - these are multiple vortices.

What country calls tornadoes suction vortexes?

No country does. A suction vortex is not a tornado; it is a feature that can develop in a tornado. A tornado itself is a vortex but can sometimes contain smaller vortices (vortexes) called suction vortices. Such a storm is called a multiple-vortex tornado.


Does a tornado split?

Not exactly. Some tornadoes, however, have multiple vortices within the main circulation. In most cases these vortices are hidden inside the funnel, but under the right conditions they can become visible, resulting in a tornado with two or more separate funnels. In some cases such a tornado may appear to split as new vortices form or as one comes out from behind another.


What does A vortex have to do with an tornado?

A tornado is a kind of vortex. Air in a tornado rotates rapidly. Additionally, a tornado may contain multiple smaller vortices.


Why does a tornado sometimes damage one house and not the other house next to it?

Some tornadoes, called multiple vortex or multivortex tornadoes, have smaller suction vortices, sort of mini-twisters, moving around in side of them. These suction vortices have stronger winds and can sometimes do much worse damage than the winds in the rest of the tornado. Sometimes these vortices are only a few yards wide.


What does Multiple vortex mean?

This term most likely refers to a multiple-vortex tornado. A tornado is itself a vortex that can sometimes contain two or more smaller vortices that move with the tornado's rotation. These vortices pack stronger winds than the rest of the tornado, and often result in areas within a tornado's path where damage is more severe than it is elsewhere.

What is the difference between a multiple vortex tornado and a single vortex tornado?

A multiple vortex tornado has smaller, short-lived vortices moving around inside of it. The suction vortices have stronger winds than the rest of the tornado and are noted for cutting narrow curved swaths of intense damage. A multiple vortex tornado sometimes has the appearance of two or more tornadoes moving circles. A single vortex tornado is simply one vortex of tornadic wind.
