Check Out the Most Detailed Tornado Simulation So Far

In the climax of the classic 1996 disaster movie Twister, scientists are able to map a tornado by deploying a bunch of sensors into a storm, but not before nearly being sucked up by an F5 tornado. Now, researchers have created a similar simulation of the internal workings of tornado, without Hollywood magic or at risk of life and limb. According to a press release, researchers using a supercomputer have created the most detailed simulations of the inner workings of tornados so far.
