type's of tornado's
destruction ranging from destroyed homes and mobile homes to snapped trees and flying debris. While its appearance is a wide, straight funnel, its damage is not inherently less than a cone tornado, as the wider width can affect a larger area, making it very dangerous.
stovepipe tornado
gradual movement, not felt
slow\silent Earthquakes
74–95 mph
Category 1
short-distance, less than an hour
local
cause damage that can range from severe to catastrophic, depending on their strength and proximity
Twin tornado
caused by plate movement, with felt and damaging types
Tectonic earthquakes
96–110 mph
Category 2
can cause more severe and unpredictable damage than a single-vortex tornado, due to the presence of multiple smaller, more intense suction vortices rotating within the main circulation. This can create a "hit-or-miss" pattern of intense destruction in narrow swaths
multi-vortex tornado
related to magma movement under volcanoes
Volcanic earthquakes
111–129 mph
Category 3 MAJOR HURRICANE'S
Their massive size and high wind speeds, which can reach up to 200 mph, result in the complete destruction of homes, businesses, and infrastructure (ef4-ef5)
The wedge
caused by human activity like fracking
induced earthquakes
130–156 mph
Category 4 MAJOR HURRICANE'S
The tornado was an F5 on the Fujita scale, and its extreme violence led it to destroy approximately 10% of the homes scour the ground bare, and obliterate entire neighborhoods.
The dead man walking
caused by man-made blasts
explosion earthquakes
157 mph or greater
category 5 MAJOR HURRICANE'S
Tsunamis can also be classified by their generating event, such as those caused by earthquakes, underwater landslides, volcanic eruptions, or even meteorite impacts.
