With a few minutes of digging, the original video can be traced back to a simulation done by http://twister.ou.edu/ who has his publications here http://twister.ou.edu/vita.html#pubs.  The video came from a different specialist in visualization, Greg Foss:

Here’s apparently a standard code used to study tornados, there’s a list of users and their publications and the governing equations.   https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/people/bryan/cm1/

Should you take any of this seriously?   Well, read the papers and decide.  Is it the fact there is some eye candy causing you to doubt that there is science behind it?
