What is a tornado ?
A violently rotating column of air touching the ground, usually attached to the base of a thunderstorm.
What is high-pressure air mass ?

What is global winds ?
Global winds are the main belts of wind that move in particular directions across the Earth.
What is Air pressure ?
It is the force exerted on a surface by the air above it as gravity pulls it to Earth.
What is thermosphere ?
The thermosphere is a layer of the Earth's atmosphere from 100 km to around 1000 km.
What is local winds ?
Local winds are winds that blow over a limited area.
What is air mass ?
An air mass is a large body of air with generally uniform temperature and humidity.
What is exosphere ?
