dc.descriptionThe results are presented of an analysis, with the help of the method of multilevel dynamical contrasting of the images, of available databases of the images of tornado. This analysis extends some preliminary results on identification of skeletal structures in tornadoes (Phys. Lett. A 306 (2002) 175) and enables us to apply to the case of tornado our former hypothesis for the probable role of nanotubular dust in the origin and stability/longevity of filamentary structures of a skeletal form in electric discharges. A hypothesis for the contribution of nanotubular dust to initiation of tornadoes is suggested, in which a key role is delivered to ability of the hypothetical skeleton inside the thundercloud to provide fast long-range transport of electricity. Thus, initiation of tornado is suggested to be an electrostatic instability caused exclusively by the presence and special structuring of a nanodust.
