AtticaFanatica Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Tangentially related and something that was already fairly well known, and being reinforced by V2 work is that tornadoes can have decently strong ground circulations without a condensation funnel or debris cloud for quite some time. For the Goshen County tornado, there was a ground circulation for ~10 minutes before there was a condensation funnel at the surface. That's a long time and another reason all traditional funnel clouds should be TOR warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
