Tornadoes and wildfires are among the most terrifying spectacles in nature. But when you put them together, really amazing stuff starts to happen…
A fire tornado (a.k.a. fire whirl or fire vortex) is an extremely rare event which occurs when fire is subject to an updraft and rotating wind, both of which come conveniently packaged in any tornado. This has the effect of stretching and spinning the flame into a whirling vortex of greater intensity than any normal fire. In other words, keep out of its way.
