Tornadoes are too small of a weather system to be affected by the Coriolis Effect. Hurricanes are affected, but they are on a massive scale compared to tornadoes.

Fun Fact: drains and toilets can rotate the water in either clockwise or counter-clockwise directions based on the shape of the drain. it is also possible to make them not spin the water at all. Dam overflow siphons work that way to minimize water turbulence and wear on the structure.

@AOUshuddered as he watched the Typhoon from the 68th floor of his Hong Kong Apartment.

"Fiú, biztos fúj a szél. Lehet, hogy beszarom a nadrágomat." He thought to himself.

Meanwhile, a man in Florida was watching a Tornado about to hit his trailer park.

"Oh God! Please save Darlene, and Marlene, and baby Harlene, and even that half-nigger baby Darlene had, little baby Dw'arlene!"

@AOUslowly eats ramen as he watches the wind and the rain hit his windows.

The Florida man hugs his family, and rebuilds his shattered life.

A guy filmed one last year. There was a bunch of little ones coming off the big one and then one formed into a reverse spin. I'm just happy we don't get those damn things in the mountains.

I wonder if having two tornados spinning counter clockwise, relatively close to one another, would cause a third tornado that forms between them, to spin clockwise, like a set of gears.
