| anatomy of a tornado: The Anatomy of Severe Weather Zach Roberts, Jason Weingart, 2015-11 Every spring the Central United States awakens from its winter slumber and begins the tumultuous transition to summer. The battle ground known as Tornado Alley comes to life as moisture, heat and wind come together to spawn the most intense storms on the planet. These storms traverse the landscape with hail, tornadoes, and lightning. As storm chasers, our mission is to capture these dynamic systems and share our experiences with you. Severe weather and the processes by which these mammoth storms develop are to this day an inexact science. However, the research that has been done on these storms, and experience in the field, has led to amazing developments in meteorology. How does a severe storm form? What are the signs a tornado may be imminent? What makes one severe storm different from another severe storm? The Anatomy of Severe Weather will visually take you through the process of severe weather using in depth explanations and high resolution photography. * A comprehensive visual guide to severe weather including thunderstorms, supercells, tornadoes, and lightning.* Illustrated throughout with easy to understand diagrams over high resolution photography and Doppler high radar images. * Covers an array of topics such as climatology, weather history, and storm chasing. |

| anatomy of a tornado: An Introduction to Severe Storms and Hazardous Weather Jeffrey B. Halverson, 2024-05-15 This book presents a deep and encompassing survey of severe weather in all its forms. An Introduction to Severe Storms and Hazardous Weather is an exciting new textbook that allows students to learn the principles of atmospheric science through the drama, exhilaration, and even tragedy of severe weather. Balancing breadth and depth, Jeffrey B. Halverson adeptly combines a short, accessible introduction to the basic principles of meteorology with detailed coverage on large- and small-scale weather hazards. He draws on specific up-to-date case studies from North America to illustrate the cause of meteorological events including hurricanes, heavy snow and ice, floods, and tornadoes. Unlike existing books on the market, Halverson delves deep into the societal impacts of these events, drawing on examples from agriculture, utility infrastructure, and commercial aviation. Each chapter also features high-quality, customized color artwork by Thomas D. Rabenhorst that helps to enhance and embed learning. Thorough in its scope, and written with an impeccable focus on the science, this book will be an essential resource for introductory undergraduate courses in severe weather, natural hazards, and extreme meteorology. It is also an excellent supplemental textbook for courses on meteorology and atmospheric science. |

| anatomy of a tornado: The Balance Claire, Dluuwiixwaay, Jesus of Nazareth, The sixth Chosen One of ancient prophesy is now walking earth as an unknown woman living a normal life. When her channel opens, however, Varahn suddenly faces the reality that heaven exists, and her ordinary life is upended. Varahn is told she’s been “chosen by the Holy Spirit to protect earth from a total extinction of life. Varahn knows human activities are already rushing earth to ecological and climate catastrophe. The process of extinction is actively underway. Although she cherishes her home, she's completely overwhelmed to think such an urgent and momentous responsibility would depend upon her. Is this real? How can she possibly reverse this trajectory? Varahn’s every day felt experience is of earth. But once she's chosen, a heavenly split of her consciousness appears at the center of the homeomorphic hologram, asleep in the very place last occupied by the Absolute God of the Hebrew Torah and the Christian Old Testament. Others in heaven mistakenly conclude Varahn must be Absolute Goddess, seeking to control All That Is. They attack her pre-emptively in ways that threaten to make her crucial task impossible. Jesus of Nazareth is profoundly concerned for both Varahn and the healing of earth. When a disbelieving Varahn decides to start a diary soon after her channel opens, Jesus recognizes that despite it being perceived as a fantasy, should He and the Holy Spirit channel back to Varahn the heavenly view of her story, Varahn might be convinced that she has in fact been chosen, and be fully empowered for her task. In Varahn’s remarkable transcription of channeled truths and personal experience, Jesus also sees an extraordinary opportunity to share his own heartfelt sense of his historical role on earth, as well as future hopes for his teachings. |

| anatomy of a tornado: Tornado Over the Tigris Michael Napier, 2015-07-31 Written from the unique perspective of a fast jet cockpit, Tornado Over the Tigris captures the essence of what it was really like to fly a Tornado at the front-line of the Cold War in Germany and on operations over Iraq in the aftermath of the Gulf War. After achieving a boyhood ambition to qualify as an RAF pilot, Michael Napier was posted to RAF Bruggen in Germany where he spent five years flying Tornado GR1 strike/attack aircraft at the height of the Cold War. Always exhilarating, sometimes amusing and often dangerous, Michael Napier's Tornado flying ranged from 'routine' low-flying in continental Europe and the UK, to air combat manoeuvring in Sardinia and the ultra-realistic Red Flag exercises in the USA. Progressing from struggling first-tourist to respected four-ship leader, he then became an instructor at the Tactical Weapons Unit at RAF Chivenor. This tour, during which he flew the Hawk, provided yet more exciting and challenging flying. He returned to the Tornado at Bruggen as a Flight Commander shortly after the Gulf War and subsequently flew a number of operational sorties over Iraq, which included leading air-strikes against Iraqi air defence installations as part of major Coalition operations. This is his story, told with ease and great style. It is sure to inspire a fresh generation of fast jet pilots as they strive to make their own marks in this field. |

| anatomy of a tornado: Revisiting National Security Prabhakaran Paleri, 2022-05-10 This book examines the evolving concept of national security and how human systems could be governed in an ever turbulent and dynamic world. It takes a revised look at the concept of national security, previously researched and identified by the author, based on the present context but with a futuristic appreciation of governance, primarily national but extended to global perspectives, in the modern and dynamically shifting world. The book emphasises the need for governments to maximise national security for the well-being of their people. The concept of national security is taken as the key subject of national governance which is extendable to global governance wherein national security is not only the physical or military security alone but also the overall well-being of the people of a nation. This book explores how national security can be achieved by balancing its various elements in different terrains where the game of governance is played in national as well as global perspective. It also presents additional findings and observations to show that the approach is transformative, redefining the key knowledge paradigms. This book is relevant for policy makers, students, researchers and academics who wish to explore and rethink their approach towards governing the human systems, whose well-being is the responsibility of governments. |
