Four tornadoes in two weeks: Why NSW is seeing so many twisters | Laura_R_Chung
As dangerous storms lashed Sydney on Thursday, meteorologists watched as the storm cell started to form a hook over Sydney’s west. Concerns grew a tornado could form and the weather bureau issued a tornado warning shortly after 4pm.
“Watching the storm develop was amazing, but I was also getting pretty concerned as I knew it could go straight through a very built-up area – we’re talking about people moving around, people suddenly able to go out and in an environment where literally anything could happen,” he said. While parts of north-eastern Victoria, southern NSW and the Central Tablelands are tornado hotspots, they can occur anywhere as long as the conditions are right. In the past two weeks, NSW has seen two large slow-moving low-pressure systems that, when combined with the humid atmosphere, cause storms.
NSW State Emergency Service Acting Assistant Commissioner Colin Malone said tornadoes were likely to occur during the warmer months and storm season.
