You will need: -2 clear plastic large soda bottles -tape -water -food coloring Fill one of the bottles 3/4 full of water. Add a couple of drops of food coloring. Invert the other bottle so that it sits on top of the first bottle with the openings together. Wind the tape tightly around the necks of the bottles so that no water can leak out. The top bottle now should be securely balanced on top of the bottom bottle. Now, hold the bottles with 2 hands and swirl the water around. Turn upside down and watch what happens. Note: Tornadoes can sometimes produce winds of 250 miles per hour. A water spout tornado is a tornado over water and a dust devil is a tornado over sand in the desert.
