The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of up to 300 mph. They can destroy large buildings, uproot trees and hurl vehicles hundreds of yards. They can also drive straw into trees. Damage paths can be in excess of one mile wide to 50 miles long.
On average, tornadoes kill about 60 people per year--most from flying or falling (crushing) debris. The actual number of tornado deaths in a year can vary wildly -- from single digits to hundreds, depending on many factors from both weather and society.ecause: Nobody knows the true wind speeds at ground level in most tornadoes, and The amount of wind needed to do similar-looking damage can vary greatly, even from block to block or building to building, ...damage rating is (at best) an exercise in educated guessing.
