A climatologist from UrFU explained the conditions that led to the formation of a tornado in Kushva.
After the tornado that occurred in Kushva on June 22, climatologist Konstantin Gribanov from UrFU explained the nature of this rare phenomenon for the Urals and warned that such cases may happen more frequently in the future.
According to the scientist, tornadoes and whirlwinds are essentially the same atmospheric phenomenon. The event in Kushva is classified by specialists specifically as a whirlwind. Its occurrence requires the coincidence of several factors: strong winds, a thunderstorm cloud, rising currents of warm air, and a sharp collision of warm and cold air masses.
Gribanov noted that due to climate change and increased atmospheric turbulence, the likelihood of such natural phenomena is gradually rising. However, it is impossible to predict the appearance of a whirlwind with certainty. At the same time, warnings about thunderstorms, hail, and strong winds indicate the conditions under which such vortices can form.
— The atmosphere is becoming more chaotic and mobile, so the average frequency of dangerous weather phenomena will increase, the scientist emphasized.
