In the center of the tornado, the air pressure is very low in comparison to surrounding air pressure.
The speed of the wind is the primary cause of deaths and destruction of property. Many people are killed by flying objects and debris (missiles). They happened In certain parts of the world Australia, the Midwestern and Southern of United States
