The velocity of air in the funnel according to some estimates can reach 1300 km/h, the storm is moving at average speed from 20 to 60 km/h. After contact with the ground tornado left behind massive destruction.

5. Hurricane
A hurricane is a tropical cyclone that occurs over the warm ocean surface and accompanied by heavy rains, squally winds and thunderstorms. It appears in the case when warm and humid air in contact with cold atmospheric masses of large volume. As a result, over the ocean, forming a funnel with the so-called "eye" in the center – the eye has a warm and calm weather, with winds at a speed of 117 km/h or more. All hurricanes come from the sea, and, once on dry land, quickly dissipate, causing before doing significant damage.
