English term or phrase: to rope out (tornado)

Bonjour,

"The tornado is roping out."
Je vois tout à fait l'image, mais je ne connais pas le terme utilisé en français.

Merci d'avance.

s'affaiblir / commencer à mourir; à se dissiper

Explanation:
"Le cône qui s'affaiblit peut prendre l'aspect d'une corde, se tordre et finalement disparaître en rentrant dans la base du nuage."
http://www.meteo.org/phenomen/tornade.htm

Donc il s'agit de la phase de dissipation, et non de la phase de formation.
