A tornado family is a series of tornadoes spawned by the same supercell thunderstorm. These families form a line of successive or parallel tornado paths and can cover a short span or a vast distance. Tornado families are sometimes mistaken as a single continuous tornado, especially prior to the 1970s. Sometimes the tornado tracks can overlap and expert analysis is necessary to determine whether or not damage was created by a family or a single tornado. In some cases, such as the Hesston-Goessel, Kansas tornadoes of March 1990, different tornadoes of a tornado family merge, making discerning whether an event was continuous or not more difficult.

- Een tornadofamilie is een serie tornado's voortgebracht door dezelfde supercel. Deze families vormen een lijn van opeenvolgende of parallelle tornadopaden en kunnen een korte spanne of een grote afstand afleggen. Tornadofamilies worden soms aangezien voor een ononderbroken tornado, in het bijzonder vóór de jaren 1970. Soms kunnen de tornadopaden elkaar overlappen en is er deskundige analyse nodig om te bepalen of de schade is aangericht door een familie of een individuele tornado. In sommige gevallen kunnen de verschillende tornado's in een familie zich samenvoegen, die de vaststelling of het een individuele tornado was of een familie nog lastiger maken. (nl)

- Une famille de tornades est un groupe de tornades émanant d'un seul orage supercellulaire « cyclique » et ayant chacune une longue durée de vie. La rotation dans et sous ce type d'orages violents varie d'intensité dans le temps. Le mésocyclone à l'origine d'une première tornade faiblit au profit d'un nouveau vortex, et ce avec plus ou moins de régularité. Typiquement, la fréquence entre deux tornades est de 45 minutes, le temps que le nouveau mésocyclone s'intensifie. Cependant, elle peut être aussi courte que quelques minutes. Il peut même arriver que la tornade en dissipation et celle en formation tourne autour l'une de l'autre. Il ne faut pas confondre ce phénomène avec celui des éruptions de tornades qui se rapporte à l’apparition de multiples tornades durant une période de 24 à 48 heures sous un grand nombre d'orages dans le sillage d'une dépression synoptique.

- A tornado family is a series of tornadoes spawned by the same supercell thunderstorm. These families form a line of successive or parallel tornado paths and can cover a short span or a vast distance. Tornado families are sometimes mistaken as a single continuous tornado, especially prior to the 1970s. Sometimes the tornado tracks can overlap and expert analysis is necessary to determine whether or not damage was created by a family or a single tornado. In some cases, such as the Hesston-Goessel, Kansas tornadoes of March 1990, different tornadoes of a tornado family merge, making discerning whether an event was continuous or not more difficult. Some tornado damage remains a mystery even today due to a lack of evidence. The Tri-State Tornado of March 1925 was one such event. It could either have been the longest single tornado recorded or a family of tornadoes. A thorough re-analyses project found that it was probably one continuous tornado for most of its path, likely bounded by separate tornadoes at the beginning and end of the very long track (VLT) tornado, and likely another significant tornado spawned many miles later. However, many other exceptional VLT events were later found to be tornado families with much shorter tornado path segments than originally thought, notably the Woodward, Oklahoma tornado family of April 1947 and the Charleston-Mattoon, Illinois tornado family of May 1917. Tornado families can be a result of satellite tornadoes, cyclic tornadogenesis, or some combination thereof. Intense downbursts may also cause damage paths to appear continuous, although this was more an issue for historic tornadoes as such damage usually is now distinguishable as caused by straight-line winds. Especially when newly forming, tornadoes may sometimes exhibit brief breaks in the damage path even as the parent circulation is continuous. Such events may be considered as "skipping", a term that originally referred to what now is typically a tornado family. Successive tornadoes may be considered by some as separate tornadoes (and thus constituting a tornado family) only when spawned by a new tornadocyclone or low-level mesocyclone (and from within a new wall cloud).

In sommige gevallen kunnen de verschillende tornado's in een familie zich samenvoegen, die de vaststelling of het een individuele tornado was of een familie nog lastiger maken. Sommige schade door tornado's blijft tot op de dag van vandaag een mysterie door gebrek aan bewijs. De Tri-State Tornado op 18 maart 1925 was zo'n tornado. Het kan zowel de langst levende tornado zijn geweest, als een familie van tornado's. Nieuwe heranalyse suggereert dat het een individuele continue tornado was, hoewel vele andere lange tornadopaden later een familie van tornado's bleken te zijn. (nl)
