[Myka]

probably the most exciting thing to ever happen in a soccer game

[Liftnainez]

[Bojangles69]

definently intense, can a dirt devil turn into a tornado?? or is it just a little baby tornado already?

[chest6]

I didnt know they got that bad..it looked really bad. I thought it was a tornado til I saw that it wasnt coming down from a cloud

[rar1015]

Thats definitely not a tornado.

[Foskamink]

can a dirt devil suck u up into the air?

We call them Willie-Willie in Australia, they are very common. I saw one take the roof right off a cattle shed once. 18 feet long peices of corrugated iron spining around in the air is am impressive site.

A dust devil or whirlwind is a rotating updraft, ranging from small (half a meter wide and a few meters tall) to large (over 10 meters wide and over 1000 meters tall). In Australia, they are commonly known as willy willies, from an Aboriginal word. Dust devils can be dangerous or harmless depending on their size. They are comparable to tornadoes, but form during fair weather and are very rarely as strong.
A dangerous dust devil was created in Trenton, North Dakota on May 7, 2006 that lifted a 4-year old girl and the trampoline she was jumping on 25 feet (approximately 8 metres) into the air. The girl survived with only moderate injuries.

Causes of dust devils

Dust devils form in areas of strong surface heating, typically under clear skies and light winds, when the sun can warm the air near the ground to temperatures well above those just above the surface layer. Once the ground heats up enough, a localized pocket of air will quickly rise through the cooler air above it. The sudden upward rush of hot air causes air to speed horizontally inward to the bottom of the newly forming vortex. As more hot air rushes in toward the developing vortex to replace the air that is rising, the spinning effect is intensified. The dust devil, once formed, is a funnel-like chimney through which hot air moves both upwardly and circularly. If a steady supply of warm unstable air is available for the dust devil, it will continue to move across the ground. However, once the warm unstable air is used up, the dust devil ends.


Smaller dust devils

Smaller dust devils, forming in hot dry weather, hardly reach more then a few meters in height. Commonly, dust devils form in fields or dusty flats, where the soil makes them more visible.
The phenomenon that forms dust devils can even develop over dry pavement. It is observable when it passes by a person, or there is litter such as leaves or paper on the pavement.



Electrical activities

It was recently found that even small dust devils (on Earth) can produce radio noise and electrical fields greater than 10,000 volts per meter.

Yeah, they're probably like my favorite thing.
