The occurrence of a tornado in the

carries of these destructive winds and
raises. anew the question, when is
a storm wind tornado?"
"Washington is outside the regular
hQunts of tornadoes." a bulletin from
the National Geographic Society head
quarters points out. yet more than
once the National Capital has been
visited by them. The most historic
occasion was August 25. 1914, the day
after Washington was captured by the

bred usually by suitry and humid
weather. They strike most often in
the afternoon. and almost always
take a path from southwest to north
east. This direction in the United
States results from the fact that lows
drift across the eastern part of the
continent almost always from south
west to northeast, and that the tor
nado Ia secondary disturbance at.
tached to the low takes the same
direction. The rapidly swirling col.
umn of air, which is the heart of the
tornado, is usually marked by a fun
nel-shaped. black cloud of vapor. This
whirling mass sucks air from all. sides
to its lower end and then upward.
Even heavy objects fly toward the

Sometimes tornado clouds go skip

havoc where the lower end touches
the. ground and leaving everything
uninjured where the end lifts.
"A distinction must be made be-
tween the velocity of the air rushing
into the funnel and the speed of the
funnel itself, moving over the earth.
1t has been pointed out that the for
mer velocity. close to the funnel, may
be that of a rifle bullet. The funnel
itself. however, seldom moves more
rapidly than 80 or 40 miles an hour,
