i'm wondering how would you create a marco that where you could set the
radii of the funnel at the top, then the radii of the bottom part, then the
marco would make a funnel cloud like a torando, but have it curveing this
way and kind of swirling around. and also look like it is an torando?

I have one, sort of. Uses MegaPov sphere_sweep and media.
It's very imperfect and not flexible to use, meaning putting it into any new
scene would require adjustments aplenty from the user.
And of course it's the media that makes it the most difficult. Whole thing
is far from being finished. I was working with it a year ago and quit.
Still interested?

I tried animating one once in POV-Ray v2.2. Was pretty good for 2.2 (had it
ripping out fence posts and trees) but pitiful by today's standards. Maybe
someday I will revisit the idea with ISOs but not today :)

hehe the first few time i use the Torando probably would be more of an
still picture, later on i might attept to animate it but that's very doubful
but i'm still interested, i'm no expert on povray or megapov just btw.

Hope you already have MegaPov, if you do it should be easy just to get a
render of a tornado-like object (minus any clouds). It's no trouble to use
MegaPov anymore now that it works with the POV-Ray CodeMax Editor DLL's as
is anyway.
There are few true "experts" of POV-Ray I believe.
The macro is in the zip file at povray.binaries.scene-files, message subject
is Tornado macro WIP (not "Torando) :-)

BTW, the spelling is "tornado", not "torando", and "macro", not "marco".
I normally wouldn't say anything, but your misspellings seem to be
persistent, not just typos.
About your question, a bunch of media-filled spheres following a spline
might work. MegaPOV will make using media a lot easier, but isn't
absolutely necessary.
Do you want a still image or animation?

My news reader checks my spelling when I send messages. It's a pain
when I paste code into my messages, but I think it's worth the extra
effort.

IMHO it is forgivable to misspell in the body, but misspelling the subject line
is a pain, since searches later on will suffer. "Hmm, wasn't there a recent post
with 'tornado' in the subject - nope..."
