Thunderstorms characterized by deep, persistent, rotating updrafts, are called supercells, or rotating thunderstorms. Supercells can occur anywhere in the world, but they are most common in the Great Plains of the United States in an area known as Tornado Alley and in the Tornado Corridor of Argentina, Uruguay and southern Brazil; and are classified by 3 distinct types: Classic, Low-precipitation, and High-precipitation. An example of how destructive supercells can actually be is well illustrated by the massive tornado outbreak on May 3, 1999 which spawned an F5 tornado in the area of Oklahoma City that had the highest recorded winds on Earth. This outbreak spawned over 66 tornadoes in Oklahoma alone. On this day throughout the area of Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas, over 141 tornadoes were produced. This outbreak resulted in 50 fatalities and 895 injuries. ................................................................................................................................................................... #science #nature #education #gifs #luculentgif
