In Figure 1 Tornado Structure has been displayed [<a href="https://www.walshmedicalmedia.com/admin/index.php?page=omics-ft-fullview&old_omics_id=106895&title=Evidence+of+Tornadoes+Reaching+the+Countries+of+Rio+Branco+do+Ivai+and+Rosario+de+Ivai%2C+Southern+Brazil+on+June+6%2C+2017#13" title="13">13</a>]. In Figure 2 displays the snapsjot of video posted on YouTube through social networks in June 6, 2017. In the picture one can see the well-defined shape of a tornado. Image of the supposed tornado in Rosário de Ivaí and Rio Branco do Ivaí, June 6, 2017. In the image one can observe the defined format of a tornado. The Figure 3 shows the damage caused at home by alleged Tornado in Rosario do Ivaí.

In the image the formation of two supercells of storms in the central region of the state of Paraná is clear, with temperatures ranging from -50°C-60°C.

It is verified that according to Figures 6 and 7, the collision of cold fronts originating from the SO of Argentina with hot air masses coming from the NW of Brazil, from the Amazon, moving through Rondônia, Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. When they meet, they collide by tapering from SO to OSO, and from NO to ONO, adding both coming from the West, and going east when entering the State of Paraná. When they add up and collide they move with great speed, provoking strong winds and intense rains, in a short period of time.

They are highlighted and indicate the temperature from 45°C-90°C (Adapted) [<a href="https://www.walshmedicalmedia.com/admin/index.php?page=omics-ft-fullview&old_omics_id=106895&title=Evidence+of+Tornadoes+Reaching+the+Countries+of+Rio+Branco+do+Ivai+and+Rosario+de+Ivai%2C+Southern+Brazil+on+June+6%2C+2017#5" title="5">5</a>].

The images are in the visible spectral, in black and white. They represent the reflectance factor from zero to 80% (Adapted) [<a href="https://www.walshmedicalmedia.com/admin/index.php?page=omics-ft-fullview&old_omics_id=106895&title=Evidence+of+Tornadoes+Reaching+the+Countries+of+Rio+Branco+do+Ivai+and+Rosario+de+Ivai%2C+Southern+Brazil+on+June+6%2C+2017#5" title="5">5</a>].

Figures 6 and 7 were obtained through the REDEMET-Meteorology Network of the Aeronautics Command, which aims to integrate meteorological products aimed at civil and military aviation.

The images of Figures 6 and 7 were obtained from the REDEMET website for June 6, 2017, from 2:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. (UTC) at 30 minute intervals. They are highlighted and indicate the temperature from 45°C-90°C. It is observed the evolution of the storm with the formation of several cores of supercells of storm that advance of west to east, crossing the state of Paraná. Supercell peaks occur in the central region of Paraná, between 18:00 UTC and 19:00 UTC, with two storm supercells and a smaller one in the region of Rio Branco do Ivaí and Rosario de Ivaí.

The three core appear well defined in the enhanced image from 18:00 UTC, with temperatures of approximately -70°C, for larger nuclei, and the lowest -90°C, represented in blue and red, respectively. Probably the core of -90°C occurred hail drop. At the same time, the image indicates four supercells. Three in the central region, one in the eastern region, and the other in the states of Paraná, Santa Catarina. This one moves from the south coast of Paraná, north of Santa Catarina and advancing offshore. The larger nucleus grows rapidly, decreasing its temperature, when approaching the region of the mountain range and when reaching the ocean.
