His ranch home was torn loose at the floorboards and destroyed. His car, which had been parked in the drive way, was found crushed a block away. But the man one of the few persons ever to survive the heart of a tornado lived to confirm that the twister had two walls and a hollow center. The sudden pressure drop was also con firmed by his household barometer; it was found in the ruins, its needle stuck nearly three points lower than the low est reading recorded a few blocks away at North Dakota Agricultural College. "T"he second forecasting tool is radar, which is also used in research. One of the most successful warn ing systems is the Texas Radar Tor nado Warning Network, established after the 1953 tornado season, the worst in history. Volunteers periodically scan the skies through radar scopes; when unusual echo activity is noted, they alert all stations. The year after the network was established, only two Texans lost their lives in tornadoes. Even last year, when a tornado roared into the heart of Dallas, a city of nearly half a million people, only 10 met death. Even more effective than ground radar, limited because storms must pass within about 50 miles of it, is air borne radar. It generally receives bet ter signals and can seek and follow approaching storms. The dream of forecasters is to blan ket the country with warning networks which, supplemented by radar and air craft, could pinpoint tornado-producing storms with lifesaving accuracy. Great hope is held for a third tool, an electronic gadget with a strange sounding name, sferics. This detection device, which measures the frequency of electrical discharges within a thun derstorm, has revealed that the fre quency of the discharges increases with the severity of the storm. More im portant, it indicates that maximum ac tivity may occur just prior to a tornado. This comes close to pinpointing a tornado beore it happens. Real accuracy in pinpoint forecast ing, however, will have to wait until research reveals the exact nature of a tornado and the storm that produces it. Again, radar has helped here. Some remark able radar photographs, taken of a tor nado storm by the Illinois State Water Survey's meteorological subdivision, showed a hook-shaped formation, like a figure "6," at the edge of the storm (see photo). Later reports from areas where the tornado struck proved that the tornado funnel was in the hook, a new clue to its exact location within a storm. Research at the University of Chicago expanded on this information. Using the photos, and others of subsequent tornadoes, and charting them with painstaking detail against weather data available for the days the tornadoes occurred, Dr. Tetsuya Fujita produced "the equivalent of a motion picture" of. the mechanism of a tornado. His method showed that the tornado "oc curs within a whirling circulation sev eral times larger than the tornado itself. The outer edge acts like a gear, turning a smaller inner gear (the tornado) at a much higher speed." Fujita believes that if this "mother cloud," which is usually 10 times the size of the tornado, can be identified early in its formation, the immediate area where a tornado may strike can be pinpointed. Some meteorologists, looking beyond mere pinpointing of tornadoes and other severe storms, hope some day to eliminate them altogether. Their talk today sounds as wild as space-travel talk of yesterday, but there is some logic on their side. Cloud seeding has had mild success, and large oil fires and mild explosions have also been ad vocated as methods which may dissipate the energy in a storm before it reaches the violent stage. Whatever the methods, man may yet learn how to tame the tornado and, instead of suffering from Nature, put its tremendous power to work for good. -C. kOtW "Here comes the hot chocolate man!"
