There have been 300 plus milein our winds during tornadoes. When wind is strong enough and a an persistent enough, it can actually push water so that like, te either end of a lake,. Like lake erie, can have a difference in in surface a level of like 15 feet. And we're not talking about, obviously, like, under the surface of the ocean re tidal forces were at work. We're talking about winds blowing across thesurface of the ocean and literally pushing ocean water in a circulating this water and what's called a gyre. Can move nutrients and and stuff like that, and help a marine mammal s with their migration patterns and stufflike that.
