By definition, landspouts and waterspouts that make ground contact are still considered tornadoes however, but are generally much weaker than supercellular tornadoes and short-lived in comparison.
These types of funnels can form from both cumulonimbus and cumulus congestus clouds. Other funnel clouds that fall under the tuba cloud feature category are cold air funnel clouds, which are high-based rotating columns of condensation caused from instability due to the arrival of a cold front. A rare type of funnel cloud known in the weather community as a horseshoe vortex, is a short-lived standalone funnel cloud that often looks like a moustache or upside-down U.
In the UK they often look like thin dangling bits of rope, hanging from the cloud above. But in hotspots such as tornado alley in the USA, funnel clouds can sometimes be thicker and much more intense.
A rotating column of wind draws in cloud droplets, making a region of intense low pressure visible. They are formed in the same way as a tornado building around this localised area of intensely low pressure and are typically associated with the formation of cumulonimbus thunderclouds. Below is a brief review of what a shelf cloud, wall cloud, and funnel cloud look like.
Remember, that the main threat with any squall line is severe damaging winds associated with the shelf cloud, although brief spin-up tornadoes can occur. Often times, these tornadoes are rain-wrapped and short-lived.
A shelf cloud will usually be associated with a solid line of storms. The wind will come first with rain following behind it. It may appear to rotate on a horizontal axis. Wall clouds will rotate on a vertical axis, sometimes strongly. Opinion Pulled pork: So easy and so cheap! Ben Garrett - September 28, 0.
