Tor tipton

Tipton Tornado, rated EF-4

Summary

A tornado is a violently rotating column of air, in contact with the ground, either pendant from a cumuliform cloud or underneath a cumuliform cloud, and often (but not always) visible as a funnel cloud. Tornadoes come in many shapes and sizes, but they are typically in the form of a visible condensation funnel originating from the base of a huge storm cloud, whose narrow end touches the earth and is often encircled by a basal cloud of debris and dust. Most tornadoes have wind speeds less than 110 miles per hour (180 km/h), are about 250 feet (80 m) across, and travel a few miles (several kilometers) before dissipating. The most extreme tornadoes can attain wind speeds of more than 300 miles per hour (480 km/h), are more than two miles (3 km) in diameter, and stay on the ground for dozens of miles (more than 100 km).

Summary lifted from Wikipedia.

Powers and Stats

Tier: High 8-C to 8-B typically; at most 7-C

Origin: The Real World

Classification: Micro/mesoscale major whirlwind, weather phenomenon, natural disaster

Powers and Abilities: Air Manipulation (Is a violently rotating column of air that is carrying and throwing objects at high speeds), potentially Danmaku given enough projectiles (While it doesn't shoot projectiles by its own, it is still carrying and throwing surrounding objects in large amounts)

Attack Potency: Large Building level to City Block level typically; at most Town level (The 2013 El Reno Tornado, the widest and most powerful tornado, had a KE rating of 35.4626 kilotons of TNT)

Speed: Below Average Human to Superhuman (117 km/h) travel speed. Superhuman (65 km/h) to Subsonic (515+ km/h) wind speed

Lifting Strength: At least Class 10 for tornadoes rated EF-3 or higher (EF-3 tornadoes have no difficulty throwing 2-3 ton automobiles dozens of meters and derailing trains; the 1995 Pampa EF-4 tornado moved machinery that weighed more than 13 tonnes, although it is unknown whether it was lifted or just pushed)

Stamina: Varies (A couple of seconds to 3.5 hours uninterrupted)

Range: Several Metres to Hundreds of Kilometres (Can extend over 350 kilometers)

Note: High-end statistics were derived by combining the records for the widest, quickest, fastest (wind), and longest lived tornadoes and calculating them as a hypothetical tornado

Note 2: It is highly advisable to check the Potential Damage listing in the Enhanced Fujita Scale article to determine a tornado's EF rating before any KE value be used. If the EF rating of a tornado in fiction cannot be determined, assume the tornado is at least High 8-C instead based on typical tornadoes (which are EF0 or EF1).
