Description
Summary:After a short description of the disastrous effects of the<br />tornado which struck the Venice lagoon on September 11, 1970, the principal<br />theories which in the centuries tried to account for the origin of such<br />terrible vortexes, are reviewed. In particular, some remarks are given about<br />the electrical theory of the tornadoes. It seems to the author that some features<br />would be explained in a simple way by considering the tornado as a<br />convectivo cell with electric currents of high intensity. Finally, after recalling<br />the meteorological conditions preceding the tornado of September 11,<br />its chief features are described.
