Skipping tornado

A skipping tornado is a process tornado (or a series of tornadoes) which has a discontinuous damage path. There are several possible causes for this phenomenon: 1. * The tornado actually lifting from the surface (which technically may make the two damage paths separate tornadoes) 2. * The tornado passing over a portion of land where there are no structures or vegetation (i.e. damage indicators) capable of showing damage 3. * The tornado temporarily weakening so that the winds are below the damage threshold of the structures or vegetation being affected.
