Raw Video: 'Fire tornado' in Brazil Apparently spotted in Brazil. It's powerful to see it. Ive never heard of any such thing before this. It's amazing.
Just looks like a localized whirlwind to me, not a tornado. High temperatures near the surface cause the air to rise, and a lower temperature layer above them can sometimes cause the spin. It takes calm conditions to create and sustain them, and they are rarely dangerous.
