Tornadoes and Downbursts
by Amanda Raymond and April Rudek
Harrah Middle School, Harrah, Oklahoma
(presented at the 1999 Earthstorm Science Fair)

My name is Amanda Marie Raymond and I'm in the 7th grade. My name is April Rudek and we chose this project because we wanted to know the difference between tornadoes and downbursts.

To complete our project, we got data, damage pictures, and other information. We worked before and after school and during lunch.

We learned that tornadoes and downbursts are very similar in the damage they produce.

We would like to thank Mrs. Cheatwood, Mrs. Brand, and Miss Chancy for helping us with our project. We would do another project because we like the challenge.
