A huge black cloud seems to have risen from the sea and becomes one with the solid gray sky covering the area
The photo frame of a water turbine that formed on the beach of the port of Kymi yesterday, as storm Daniel bore down on Evia, is “breathtaking”.
As shown in the photo, a huge black cloud seems to have sprung from the sea and becomes one with the solid gray sky covering the area, as the hydro turbine when it has risen and begins its whirling.
The water tornado phenomenon appears quite often now in the coastal areas of the country and according to experts it is due to global warming.
It is observed on days with great heat and humidity and is the vortex between a “storm cloud” and the surface of the sea.
The main cause of this phenomenon is the large temperature difference between water surfaces and upper atmospheric layers.
Although weaker than tornadoes, a hydro-turbine exhibits wind speeds of over 100 km per hour. But when it reaches land, it evaporates. The most hydro-turbines are observed near the tropics and less often in the middle latitudes and their appearance is due, according to experts, mainly to global warming.
A tornado forms over land and is essentially a vertical column of atmospheric air that exhibits intense rotation and extends from the base of a storm’s clouds toward the ground, showing the characteristic funnel. If a tornado occurs over the sea it is called a hydro tornado, while smaller tornadoes can appear over desert areas or flat areas covered with soil, getting the name dust devils.
