A satellite tornado is a term used to describe a smaller tornado that forms in close proximity to a larger, stronger parent tornado. These satellite tornadoes usually occur in the vicinity of the main vortex and are often seen rotating around it. They can develop from the same thunderstorm or supercell that produces the primary tornado, and while they are typically weaker than the main tornado, they can still cause damage.
