Generally speaking, whether a tornado occurs on the mainland or on an island will not have much of an effect on it. However, islands in warm water may see a high incidence of fair-weather waterspouts. These whirlwinds can sometimes cause damage but they are generally weaker than true tornadoes and usually dissipate when they hit land.
