MonHtroua Force OF Tofnnooees
Much has been said about electricity
as factor for destructiveness in the
various gyrating stormclouds known
as cyclones, drechoes and tornadoes.
In all of this volunlnous mass of 30
called scientific opinions and deduc-
tons one fact seems to have been en-.
tirely overlooked-viz. the almost re-
sstless force OF wind when moving
with high velocity. When the veloc.
fly is but fifty miles an hour, the pres.
sure of air in motion is equal to twelve
pounds to the square foot. and. when
this velocity rises to hundred miles
per hour its force rises to the equiyateat

augmentation OF force being always
proportional to the square Of the We
loclty.
