Answer:
In a whirl wind, the air from nearby region gets concentrated in a small space thereby decreasing the value of moment of inertia considerably. ... Since, Iω= constant, due to decrease in moment of inertia, the angular speed becomes quite high

In a whirl wind, air from nearby regions gets concentrated in a small space. Moment of inertia (I) decreases on account of decrease in distance. As L=Iω=constant, therefore, angularspeed ω increases to alarminglyhigh values.
