The pressure at the center of a tornado is usually 13 pounds per square inchHoweverinside the house the air pressure is normalabout 15 pounds per square inchThe difference of 2 pounds per square inch between the inside and outside pressure may not seem like muchBut suppose a tornado passes over a small building that measures 20 by 10 by 10 feetOn each square inch of the buildingthere is 2 pounds of pressure from the inside that is not balanced by air pressure outside the buildingOn the ceilingthat adds up to an unbalanced pressure of 57 600 poundsThe pressure of the four walls adds up to 172 800 pounds
If windows are open in the buildingsome of the inside air will rush out through themThis will balance the pressure inside and outside the buildingBut if the windows are shut tightlythe huge inside pressure may cause the building to burst
