Now that's a tornado!

A rare, mother ship cloud formation hovers over Childress, Texas. Tornado-chasers there covered seven hours and 150 miles (241 kilometers) tracking the supercell thunderstorm that produced this cloud formation. Supercell thunderstorms are known to spawn tornadoes with winds exceeding 200 mph (322 kph)

  3. That's because what we see in the picture is not a tornado, but a mesocyclone. It can produce tornadoes, but is not a tornado itself.

  14. That is NOT a tornado. It's a super cell thunderstorm,which is very capable of producing a strong tornado, as said under the picture.
