Conditions that Cause Natural Disasters
Tornadoes:
There are many causes in the earth's climate that can cause various natural disasters such as tornadoes. Tornadoes can be vigorous and very destructive where they hit. A reason they form is because of fronts in the atmosphere, when a cold and warm front meet they collide and cause the winds to spiral. The winds will then go in the direction of the updraft of air. When the tornado is formed the air will also have lots of moisture in the air. the biggest tornadoes (f-5) winds can range from 261-318 mph. these are the main causes for tornadoes.

Hurricanes:
Hurricanes are one of the most destructive and harmful natural disasters caused by the ocean. Hurricanes are mostly caused in warm waters and has lots of moist air. Lots of evaporation will occur where the hurricane will form in parts of the ocean. Air will usually be hot where it can hit. For the hurricane to form the wind pattern will be spiraled. These are the things that can cause a hurricane to form. Although hurricanes can happen year round they are most common to strike in the months is August, September , and October.

Thunderstorms:
Many things in climate can impact to create a thunderstorm. For one to form there will be lots of rain and winds. Lots of cumulonimbus clouds will appear into the sky. There will also be an updraft as well as a downdraft that occurs in the air. An updraft is when the gases in the air rise, and the downdraft is when the air moves downwards. Straight line winds and very strong jet streams can cause thunderstorms. If there is lots of heavy winds and rains that can end up creating one of these to happen. Thunderstorms are caused by these various affects on the weather.
