The wind speed in a tornado may reach speeds well over 200 mph, though few tornadoes are that intense. Winds over 300 mph may occur in rare instances. A 200 mph wind speed marks the upper limit of wind estimates for an EF4 tornado. A tornado with estimated winds higher than that would be rated EF5.

200 mph is at the extreme upper edge of an EF4 tornado. Anything above 200 mph is an EF5.
