Such a hurricane would be a category 5 as would any hurricane with winds over 156 mph. However, no hurricane has been confirmed to have such winds. It has been suggested that Hurricane Camille may have had such winds, but we don't really know as that storm destroyed all wind instruments in its path.

∙ 11y agoBoth a tornado and a hurricane can have such winds. A tornado with 200 km/h winds would be an EF2 while a hurricane with such winds would be a category 3.
