Most tornadoes have winds in the range of about 65-85 mph. The most damaging tornadoes usually have winds over 165 mph. On rare occasions winds can exceed 300 mph.
There is no given forward speed for a tornado of any rating. Like most tornadoes, an F5 can be anywhere from stationary to moving at 70 mph. Wind speeds inside an EF5 tornado (essentially the same rating with corrected wind speeds) are in excess of 200 mph.
The record is around 300 mph.
Well that fast of wind is asspose to be lightning for one to be really a laska.
The estimated wind range for an F4 tornado is 207-260 mph. On the Enhanced Fujita scale this was change to 166-200 mph for an EF4 tornado.
Yes, wind near a tornado spirals in towards the tornado.
A tornado IS wind- very fast winds spinning in a circle.

A tornado is not a solid thing that you can touch, it is a vortex of very fast wind.
depends on size of the tornado anywhere from 65 to over 300 mph.

A Tornado is swirly fast wind, a flood is rising water levels...
The record is around 300 mph.
No. A "sand tornado" (which is a dust devil, not an actual tornado) will move in whatever direction the wind around it is blowing.
There is no set wind speed to that qualifies as a tornado, though different scales have minimum estimates ranging from 40mph to 65 mph.
It varies widely. Some tornadoes barely move at all while others may move at over 70 mph. The average tornado moves at about 30 to 35 mph. Wind speeds in a tornado can range from about 60 mph to over 300 mph, with lower values being more common.

In terms of how fast a tornado is moving, the tornado is tracked on radar. The forward speed is calculated based on how far it moves in a given period of time. The wind speed of a tornado is estimated based on the severity of the damage it causes.
