A multiple-vortex tornado (often shortened to multi-vortex tornado) is a tornado that contains several vortices (called subvortices or suction vortices) revolving around, inside of, and as part …

A short-lived, ground-based, shallow, vortex that develops on a gust front (thunderstorm’s outflow – leading edge of storm) associated with either thunderstorms or showers.

A tornado which contains several vortices that are called suction vortices or sub-vortices, rotating inside or around as a part of the main vortex is called a multiple-vortex tornado.

…to what is termed a multiple-vortex tornado. In these secondary vortices, air spins rapidly around the axes while the vortices themselves rotate around the periphery of the central eye.

Intense shear zones and power minima indicate location of multiple vortices, the first ever observed by radar. Ovals delimit regions of very high shear and power minima. Tick marks are …

Jun 5, 2025 · Multiple-vortex tornadoes are characterized by the presence of multiple subvortices within a single tornado circulation. These subvortices are smaller, rotating columns of air that …

Meteorologist Orelon Sidney takes an extended look at a mutli-vortex tornado and explains how they happen. - Videos from The Weather Channel | weather.com.

A multi-vortex tornado is a type of tornado in which two or more smaller, rapidly spinning vortices exist within the main tornado circulation. These subvortices rotate around the tornado’s central …

The multiple vortices observed in this tornado exhibited extremely high shear and implied high vertical vorticity at their centers. Frequently, these regions contained half or more of the total …
