Not1CentMore 10 Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) A FIRE TORNADO?! Amazing video of Firewhirls turn and burn. They are rapidly spinning vortices that form when air superheated by an intense wildfire rises rapidly, consolidating low-level spin from winds converging into the fire like a spinning ice skater, pulling its arms inward. The typical firewhirl can grow to about 100 feet tall, but is very narrow, on the order of a couple of feet wide.
