Tornado debris can travel surprisingly far after a violent storm
Intense tornadoes are capable of producing destructive winds of more than 300 km/h. These whirlwinds can reduce the mightiest oak tree to splinters and entirely demolish a solidly built home. All that debris doesn't stick around where it came apart. A tornado can loft debris hundreds of kilometres away from where it originated—and some of that debris is incredibly heavy. DON'T MISS: Tornadoes suck upward like a vacuum Tornadic winds are capable of producing tremendous damage on their own. But these storms are unique in that they suck upward rather than just blowing wind around in a circle. This upward component of the violent winds provide tornadoes the leverage they need to peel roofs from homes, uproot trees, and toss vehicles as if they were toys. Winds within a twister extend from the surface deep into the heart of its parent thunderstorm. While most debris falls back to the ground in a hurry, some objects can loft high into the thunderstorm—and then take a long ride on upper-level winds. It's common after a violent tornado to see debris travel dozens, if not hundreds, of kilometres downwind from the point of damage. This is called debris fallout—and it's actually possible to see it on weather radar. The radar image above shows the debris fallout from a violent tornado in southern Mississippi on April 12, 2020. A powerful EF-4 tornado damaged or destroyed thousands of structures along its 110-kilometre path. Special technology embedded in weather radar allows us to 'see' debris suspended in the atmosphere during and after a tornado. The tornado itself is visible as a tight ball of debris. Strong upper-level winds blew a tremendous amount of debris downwind, which the radar was easily able to detect. It takes tremendous forces to loft heavy debris like metal and wood long distances. A strong EF-2 tornado in April 2018 struck Greensboro, North Carolina, and tossed heavy pieces of corrugated metal nearly 30 kilometres downwind. Lighter objects like envelopes and photographs are known to travel hundreds of kilometres. One paper published in 1998 found that pieces of paper had been transported up to 335 km downwind from a tornado. Another study in 1995 found that a twister in Barneveld, Wisconsin, had transported 'traceable' pieces of paper—such as invoices and personal cheques—177 km away from the damaged town.

Harper and Schwarber spark the Phillies to a 9-4 win over the reeling Yankees, who await Judge news
NEW YORK (AP) — Bryce Harper homered deep into the right-field bleachers and Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run double after New York's 10th error in five games, sparking the Philadelphia Phillies to a 9-4 win Saturday as the reeling Yankees awaited test rests on the right elbow of captain Aaron Judge. Trea Turner drove in two runs and Edmundo Sosa also homered for the Phillies, who opened a 9-1 lead. Philadelphia started the day a half-game behind the NL East-leading New York Mets. Schwarber had six RBIs and Turner was 6 for 11 as Philadelphia outscored New York 21-9 in the first two games of the three-game series. Ranger Suárez (8-4) allowed one run and seven hits in 5 2/3 innings with eight strikeouts and one walk, throwing a season-high 108 pitches. Judge was out of the Yankees' starting lineup for just the second time this season. His elbow has been bothering him since a throw Tuesday at Toronto, and manager Aaron Boone said the two-time AL MVP was sent for a scan Saturday morning. New York began the day a season-high 5 1/2 games behind AL East-leading Toronto and dropped to 3-5 since the All-Star break. Schwarber doubled after second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. bobbled Turner's potential inning-ending, double-play grounder in the seventh, Chisholm's 12th error this season. Ryan McMahon went 1 for 3 with a walk in his Yankees debut, a day after the third baseman was acquired from Colorado for a pair of pitching prospects. Marcus Stroman (2-2) allowed four runs, five hits and four walks in 3 2/3 innings. Sosa hit a two-run homer in the seventh off Allan Winans and Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run drive against Daniel Robert in the bottom half. Key plays Sosa left with a bruised back after the third baseman was elbowed by left fielder Brandon Marsh in a collision while catching Chisholm's seventh-inning popup. Key stat New York is 21-28 following a 35-20 start. Up next New York LHP Carlos Rodón (10-7, 3.10) and Philadelphia RHP Zack Wheeler (9-3, 2.39) start Sunday's series finale. ___ AP MLB:
