A tornado is a violent windstorm usually characterized by a twisting, funnel
             shaped cloud that is caused by a thunderstorm or a hurricane. It is produced
             when a cool air mass meets a warm air mass and forces the warm air mass to
             rise over the cool air mass very rapidly. Most of the damage from a tornado
             is a result of high wind velocity and wind blown debris. Most tornadoes
             occur during the months of March through August, but they can occur during
             any time of the year. They also seem to strike in the afternoon to the evening.
