Tornado in Joplin, Missouri, USA: major destruction and hundreds injured
Monday, 23 May 2011

According to numerous reports in the U.S. press, four hours ago, the Joplin City, Missouri, United States swept the most powerful tornado, which heavily damaged buildings and facilities, previously received information about hundreds injured, the exact number of injured and damage is assessed.

As reported by eyewitnesses, the tornado appeared to 5.45 pm at local time on May 22, 2011 and went straight through downtown of Joplin, which was caused by very heavy damage to the material infrastructure of the city, as well as a path the tornado resulted in numerous injured among the local population, as reportedly: ” the Regional Medical Center suffered crowded. " Eyewitnesses report the unusual strength of tornado, which can be easily knocked down dozens of heavy trucks, destroyed a radio station and television station.

In Joplin immediately directed all the rescue teams from all over the state of Missouri, as many people remained under the rubble of homes and locked in cars. As reported by eyewitnesses, the strength of the tornado was such, that the tornado took down from the many trees in downtown of Joplin not only leaves but also the bark of these trees, but from some of the buildings were only the mountains of debris. As reported by eyewitnesses: "tornado tossed cars into houses like chips." Although tornadoes for these places is not such a rare occurrence, all the witnesses unanimously declared, that this is the strongest tornado ever to happen in this area.

Tornado –is the most violent act of nature, which is a narrow monstrously rotating column of air, that extends from a thunderstorm cloud to the ground. Because wind is invisible, not always possible to consider the tornado visible sign of the tornado-funnel, consisting of water droplets, sometimes items throughout its existence, tornadoes are not always in contact with the ground. Dust and debris in the rotating funnel also make a tornado visible and indicate the position of the tornado. In the land of its diameter is only about 100 m. The speed of rotating winds in the range are from 150 to 500 km / hr. In the center of a tornado is a region of extremely low pressure, where the dust is drawn, forming a dark hand rising up to heaven. Around this pipe rising air is blowing very strong wind, uproot the plants and destroying buildings. Tornadoes occur in the depth of the low pressure in the interaction with atmospheric fronts or other weather changes. In continental regions, they are accompanied by intense heat in late summer when the ground is the most heated.

Tornadoes are most frequent in the central regions of the United States, but they are both in India and in many other countries. This tornado in the city of Joplin has arisen due to the abnormally hot weather in this region the United States.

In general, the researchers isolated two types of tornado: tornado, which became the cause of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes that have appeared due to other factors. Usually, tornadoes are the result of storms, and often most dangerous. Supershtorm – is a long (one hour) storm continued through, the rising air flow, oblique, and kept rotating. The width of this stream is 10 miles in diameter and 50,000 feet in height, is required from 20 to 60 minutes for the formation of tornadoes. Tornado is a very small part of this massive gyre. The most powerful tornadoes are the result of strong thunderstorms. Tornadoes second type are formed without the involvement of the ascending swirling air flow. This tornado - a whirlwind of dust and debris that forms near the surface of the earth along the front line without the terrible wind whirling funnel. The most destructive and deadly tornadoes form under the huge cumulonimbus clouds, which in the U.S. called supersells. These clouds often produce large hail, squally winds, severe thunderstorms and showers, as well as tornadoes.

Of all the U.S. states most affected by tornado in Texas in May 11, 1953- tornado struck the town of Wake in central Texas, which is 300 kilometers from the Gulf Coast. The most terrible drama in U.S. history, associated with tornadoes, was played in 1925, when a tornado passed through Missouri, Illinois and Indiana, killing 689 people. Each year in the U.S. there are about a thousand tornadoes, more difficult to say, as some tornadoes occur in sparsely populated areas and therefore are not recorded. Most tornado season lasts from early spring to midsummer. In some states, peak tornado is in May, while in others - in June or July. But in general, tornadoes can occur at any time of year.

According to forecasts of U.S. meteorological- today is probably a repetition of tornadoes in Missouri and Kansas, and probably heavy hail.

(see a map)

Despite the fact, that a storm warning in the province Zhejiang was announced two days ago, it is expected that the typhoon Muifa reach the east coast of Zhejiang province, China, on the morning of August 7, 2011. According to the forecasts of meteorological stations of China, the typhoon Muifa will bring in coastal of Chinese provinces of Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Shandong are very strong winds and heavy rain.

At the time of this writing, the typhoon Muifa is located 500 km south-east of Shanghai, China, and is moving northwest at 22 kilometers per second. At present the wind velocity at the center of typhoon Muifa is 150 km / h, in the morning the wind speed at the center of typhoon Muifa will expect at 140 km / h, and the next day the wind speed at the center of typhoon Muifa will expect at 120 km / h .

Because of these disappointing data, the ports were returned more than 5000 ships, that were on the eastern coast of China. According to local weather station, diameter of typhoon Muifa is about 450 kilometers.

Typhoon comes from the Chinese phrase “tai feng” - a great wind, and these words are called tropical cyclones, occurring in the western Pacific, and 170 degrees east longitude, north of the equator. Usually typhoons are moving to the west and north-west at a speed of 20 km / h and reach the coast of Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, China, Korea and India. Individual typhoons may reach the coast of Primorye Territory in Russia, the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka, even, becoming extratropical in atmospheric cyclones. Usually, on average, every year there are about 30 typhoons, with the majority of these typhoons developed to the stage of the hurricane, with winds over 30 m / sec, the rest of typhoons reach the stage of a tropical storm. It is noticed that most of the tropical typhoons, nearly 70 percent of all typhoons formed only in the period from July to October.

Typically, the diameters of the typhoons are up to several hundred kilometers, the typhoon abrupt decrease in air pressure, sometimes reaching less than 900 mbar. Typhoons always produce very high sea, and their accompanying loss of huge amount of rain and powerful winds. In 1959, the strongest typhoon almost completely destroyed the Japanese city of Nagoya.

In the 21st century, one of the most powerful typhoon was Typhoon "Nabi" in 2005 that killed 20 people and led to the complete destruction or major damage 400 buildings, leaving thousands of families without electricity. Typhoon "Nabi" compared with the hurricane "Katrina." Typhoon "Nabi" shifted from the Mariana Islands in the north-west at a speed of 20 km per hour. Typhoon "Nabi" has been assigned to the international scale the highest category with winds at its center was 160 kilometers per hour. Over three thousand people on the Japanese island of Kyushu in advance received from the authorities instructed to evacuate to safer places. Included in the circulation of the cyclone typhoon "Nabi" clouds covered all of Japan except Hokkaido. Almost the entire central and southern Japan, heavy rain on southern Japan coast hit by a wave height of 9 meters, with gusts occasionally reached 25 meters per second. Major victims managed to escape, as promptly taken security measures and Japan's coastal communities were evacuated to safe places. Typhoon "Nabi" broken road access to southern Japan and brought to the capital region of Japan, heavy rains, due to which 8000 families were left without electricity, and Tokyo has been flooded homes in 2800.
