Default from A until B??

Hello,
I read the following sentence in one article:

From the moemnt a tornado until it reaches the ground, it is usually not much more than a few minutes.

Is the usage of " from... until" correct? We usually use "from ~to"
If yes, how do you explain the usage here, if not, how should I change the sentence?

Thanks

Paula
