Catawba rhododendron bushes can reach a height of 6'-8' with a spread of 4'-6'. Displays are most effective when rhododendron bushes are massed together. These are poisonous plants -- do not allow children to ingest any of the azaleas or rhododendrons.
Best Answer: Tornadoes are caused by winds. When a tornado forms the wind pressure around the tornado drops and that's what you see on the barometer, the pressure goes down.
The pressure imbalance that produces lift creates a problem at the wing tips. The higher-pressure air below a wing spills up over the wing tip into the area of lower-pressure air above. The wingâs forward motion spins this upward spill of air into a long spiral, like a small tornado, that trails off the wing tip. These wing tip vortices create a form of pressure drag called vortex drag. Vortices reduce the air pressure along the entire rear edge of the wing, which increases the pressure drag on the airplane. The energy required to produce a vortex comes at the expense of the forward motion of the airplane. Tilting the airplaneâs wings upward makes the vortices stronger and increases vortex drag. Vortices are especially strong during takeoff and landing, when an airplane is flying slowly with its wings tilted upward.
